Breath Through

 

We fall,

entwined in our

submersion, now

wrapped in sea and

want, need and desire,

warm and coddled we

move deeper.

I breath through you,

you are limitless

in depth, an ocean within

yourself, I flow through you

as a river, surgeing onward,

drawing from you, filling you all

at once.

 

We roll, tumble

surface, draw in air only

to sink again, arms wrapped

fervently, again

I am drawn to life and exploding,

joy erupting from every cell,

knowing you so

intensely … deeply moved

by the knowledge

you have of me.

 

We burst the surface

still entwined, now just holding,

the seawater about us as a

birthsack holding us safe,

feeding us warmth,

feeling we are born out

of each other and back into this world,

a singular entity, two hearts,

two minds,

one soul.
