Peregrination
Kiss me, Love.
Your body
is a soft,
white temple
discovered
at the end
of arduous
pilgrimage.
I stand
before you,
the pilgrim
who knocks,
waits,
and hopes.
Kiss me;
open your
secret heart
that I might
enter you
and dissolve
in your
mysteries.
Let me worship
at the altar
of your flesh,
of your spirit.
I have traveled
long and hard
seeking
the one
engendered
by two.
I tremble before
the possibility
of who you are,
who you might be.
Kiss me, Love,
please be
the end
of my journey,
the sanctuary
I have sought.
