In its search for absolution, her heart listens

and aches for the matching rhythm

of another searching heart.

As she yearns to celebrate again, to dance,

she sings of the orchestration of lives shared.

From the gentleness of clasped hands

to the searing heat of clasped bodies,

she mourns the loss and reaches for her mate

adrift somewhere in the ether

also wondering where his companion

awaits, hidden from view.

Blinded by the false deities of love,

who wear their pointless promises

to cover insecurities and lies,

the two stumble through the void,

unable to see, yet armed with the

knowledge of each other’s existence.

Their prayers synchronize, increase

in intensity as each searches for the other.

Across the miles their words touch;

poetic lines embrace, joining minds

and souls in the recognition of oneness.

Life’s battles fade in significance

as the two spirits touch on levels

that reach beyond the physical.

Their communion carries them

to dimensions achieved only by the masters;

salvation awaits in their consummation.
