Beloved
You held me
underwater
indefinitely
blue skies and dazzling outer space
flooded
my lungs, body, mind,
and spirit

this was no mere death
nor ordinary passing
but the birth of
something far greater
too vast to adequately describe

There is a new constellation
in the luminous heavens
it spans the entire prism
two starry lovers
enshrined
wedded in an eternal
inseparable embrace

Hi Ron, Yes, this does sound scary being held under water indefinitely, but the inference is esoteric. There is a story where the Guru holds the disciple underwater and when the disciple starts gasping for air the Guru says this is how intense your love for God should be. In this poem I tried to describe my love for God beyond the desire for even air.
Blessings and spring blossoms

There's something about being "held me underwater indefinitely" that scares me, otherwise your poem is very uplifting and a harbinger of great love.

Ron
