LUSHER THAN LUSH
colder than cold
your heart had grown
its greyness felt within
bolder than bold
your choice to fall
and to once again begin
through crisis came the breakthrough
an awakening most profound
through your cracks the light streamed right on cue
your being to surround
lusher than lush
the girl you saw
when she drew the curtain back
flusher than flush
the hand they dealt
to colour what once was black
your beauty is always noticed
by these irregular eyes
your smile so clear it couldn't be missed
a heaven sent surprise
harder than hard
it was to feel
the connection cut by rust
the way ahead barred
the flames blown out
as the wind began to gust
you'd not yet learned the light was you
and your faith began to fade
till the end of the triggered quest was due
re-union would be delayed
deeper than deep
you dived right down
three keys to locks were found
steeper than steep
the road you climbed
to live on higher ground
your soulmates came in one by one
and helped you to ascend
re-occurrence, lifetimes past re-run
all illusion you would transcend
sweeter than sweet
the vision
when our paths again did cross
neater than neat
the timing
instigated by the boss
as the phoenix spread its wings alight
shared essence filled the room
from the embers, fire did re-ignite
hearts' lotus chose to bloom
stronger than strong
the seed had grown
through the dirt, the dark, the pain
the key yours all along
cut to free the unknown
and kept safely on its chain
the internal worlds of the mirror souls
each other's truth would now reflect
no chapters skipped as you played your roles
a tale to heaven and earth connect
brighter than bright
your light did shine
illuminating all the dust
tighter than tight
the realign
when-to-pair the two would trust
as all the old ways passed away
all that wasn't you dissolved
"i'm better on my own" you say
fear's projections would be resolved
purer than pure
your love became
as your selves began to merge
surer than sure
your footing
as you stood there on the verge
you two perfectly imperfect
each crafted by the other's hand
devotion, passion and desire
without condition or demand
hotter than hot
the flames did burn
sacred union we did taste
an ideal knot
our bodies formed
with our chakras interlaced
we both trembled as completion neared
fusion opened wide the gate
and through it higher light was steered
to an earth we helped create
clearer than clear
the mission
to express so all might see
a dearer than dear
commission
for divine humanity
then up there in the sky above
two new stars would take their place
and between them build a bridge of love
to eternally embrace
so many many mansions
there are in the house of the lord
and in those many mansions
so many gods do board
onwards and upwards
keep
walking
