My heart

It beats for you

With you

It falls into rhythm

Listening to your breath

And the rustling of your body - beneath the sheets

It sees into your eyes

And knows the language of your shoulders

My heart

It beats for you

With you

Reaching out to know you

And to show you

Love


Love in the little things, and the big things

And most importantly

Love in the nothings

When there is nothing

Except your soul

And the beating

Of my heart

Everything reduced with each slowing beat

Sounds slowly vanquished

Smells forgotten

Gravity lifted

Sight gone white

Touch gone numb, except for the slightest...

Thrum

And so to

The mind distilled

Slowly lulled down into the nothing

Pulled by the slowing rhythm

Of heart beats

Slowly

And nothing

And nothing

Until

There is only one thought

In all of everything

...

..

.

Knowing

.

..

...

Just a tickle on the edge

Of consciousness

Just the tickle of knowing

And the slight slow thrum

A thrum that

That grows

That hastens

The knowing blossoming

Unfolding

It all comes back

This time in focus

You are steadied

Your valleys a little more shallow

You are tempered

Your fear tempered

For you know

You are loved
