in(spirit).

fostered care, under the protection of the Almighty.
hiding in the shadows of a harboured love.
safe now, in the grasp and eyes of the lover she swallows whole, wholly.
into my gut and in the palm of my hand.
i hold you, i hold you.

we can only try everyday, we can only give in.
there is no light and no darkness, only the intention and feel.
only the goodness and purity of a good deed,
a heart worth sharing.

i swing from the eaves that hang sturdy over my head,
i am washed away with the rain.
landing softly, hardly landing at all;
praying for the earth to cushion my fall, for the insects to carry me away on rafts of twigs and vines.
i am thankful for airplanes and the spectrum;
wisps of hair and an evergreen romance.

i am thankful,
i am always yours.
