I Became the Goddess
This morning I watched you salute the sun Feet planted in beach sand, Eyes present with horizon's tangerine blue. I curved my steps so you would not be distracted Your hands pressed together like our bodies have many times known Your soul seemed to be lifting up the sky And I remembered your peacfulness The prayer of your body The sacrament of your breath I remembered my love for you is a symphony which moves thru all things Which swims thru the air like a seagull And flies thru the earth like the roots of trees Which exists in the cosmic ignition of the sun Atoms spinning and ruptured the way the human heart must be opened Exploding love's brilliance
Did you see this then? My love for you existing inside the sun As you emptied your prana back into wind and recycled God's breath as your own? Did you know you were saluting love's precious song of you A note of starlight emanating from the heart of the Goddess Examining us both, My eyes upon you and your eyes upwards to Heaven The eternal yogic pose of lovers in the Tarot? How I could live a million lives in the fuel of that moment How I knew my love for you was older than starlight My love for you was the Big Bang Was the birth sound OM of this universe My love for you was creation itself Which I thought into being just so I could see you In salutation to the sun On a beach in the Bahamas, Believing myself a separate entity from the God and goddess
All this I have done Have found rebirth after rebirth To witness myself in your soft prayers, a breathing miracle Hands in prayer position and all existance is a prayer to you now.
Breathe this knowledge into your now lover And hold this pose which is eternitiy's blessing of you My hands empty starlight as ink now My mouth cuts the original OM into this prayer Shaping it as my memory In this proud holiness I know in seeing you and knowing your presence. You are love, my lover You are naked and nameless in the eyes of the God Which He shared with me in that moment such that God and I were eternal twins
So powerful is my love for you that I created the Universe So powerful is your love, that in seeing you, I became the Goddess. | |
