Entrancement

Ever revealing dream
To hold in my arms
Sweetness of the maker
In her peaceful slumber
She is irresistible
Smiles willingly
At my entrancement
Holds tightly to
Newborn revelation
My gift to nurture
Upon waking, momentarily
Snuff out feeble flame
Hopes and aspirations
Borne out of longing
Loneliness deprivation
Old growth affection
Survives years unknown
Wild rampaging fires
Simply to fall, hollow
All on its own
To graciously make way
For new life

How it feels

To know you deeply 
By life experience

How it feels
To lift someone up
On your shoulders
Only to be pushed down
Bury me standing

How it feels
To be kept in shadows
Of a gas giant
Evading their orbiting moons
Enabling their gravity
To destroy all
In your path

This is not me
This is not you
Circling Jupiter
Late discovered
What if we found
Each other too soon?

Wait patiently
For orbits to lock
So to know
How it feels
For life to revolve
Around you
