The Ache

an ache,
trembles,
echoes through me and
into the cosmos
so far and wide
I can see out beyond space and time,
past a million blazing suns
          
Lost for eons
          questing for god and you

My soul waxes and wanes
recognizing the other
it explodes wider
shifting
but unable to release
the last breath that will ignite
the last death

Within deep chasms
embers  drift
smolder
wait
to consume all that is known
     

Lost  for eons
    questing for god and you

Only the farthest galaxies
on the outer edges of expansion
know my heart

A lone emission of love
has a faint tone
the other’s rhythm is a shadow
only seen because of the sun.
a strange energy
bombards my atmosphere
quiet earthquakes
disturb my ring of fire

lost for eons
questing for god and you

a deep ocean of indifference
presses down
on a hidden fountain of passion
forgotten in separateness

when you seek me
my body vibrates
and the core begins to melt

your voice is like a
supernova exploding
into an array of colors I cannot name
they ripple through me
their rhythm is  an inferno raging

lost for eons
questing for god and you

a wicked land mass miles thick
hide the
ashes of so many paths burned
in vain
layers of illusion crumble

A dragon who only
knows fire
crosses
endless dimensions
swims from underneath  
the primordial sea
the twin flame questing for me

the other illuminates
the now
the serpent uncoils its tied
secrets

the inner sphere is a
a wave breaking on the
sand saturated with eternity
my dream yearns for the
phoenix
to become vapor on the horizon

I am light
I am the cosmos,
the dragon, the flame,
the phoenix, the center
the nothing, the everything
I am dark,
I am every cell of light
in the sun

only when
you exhale
your sacred breath
does the ache cease
igniting
the beloved
the flame illuminating
eons
you
god

and I
am found.
