it’s like being lifted
from a dream.
you’re here
and all the people you know
are so real
and the space warps around you
and it’s nothing but love.

it’s not uncomfortable.

you’ll never feel like you’re ready,
but it comes
and you’ll know that you’ve been waiting.

—————

you are arms and legs and organs and thought and you are air and fire and water; full, emptied and filled.
God is one, the whole as one.

death and life,
a kiss between
melodrama
and silence.
