No, I wouldn't

In the turning phases of the moon

Your warmth and coolness

ebb and flow

distractions that

burn and freeze

my soul

footprints

that disappear

when I get close enough

to touch your

fantasies

Did you ever think

I'd abandon

you 

for the 

fickle feelings

that 

pervade 

the invisible trails

we have walked

a million years?

The Universe will explode

When you and I

finally meet

it will be

no surprise

to the Universe

but that won't mean

that She will not

explode 

with infinite 

joy

And all the 

fragile strands

of connection

that She has

magically woven

into the

flowering of our love

will hold us

in lifetimes of

rapture

Footnote

I created this digital picture last night and found the words for it this morning.  Both reflect the beliefs and expectations I have of a *new* relationship :)

The Quiet Voice

See those shadows on the ground?

Consider then 

The Quiet Voice

She speaks to you

even when 

you're not 

listening

She can't help herself

and doesn't try to

for she is 

Truth

stripped naked

disarmingly so

Your faithful servant

and unyielding master

Don't try to deny her

Ignore her

suppress her

Such actions 

leave you disturbed

unsettled

a cauldron of

rumbling

grumbling

sneering

howling

bleating

menacing 

irksome

emotons

and

thoughts

But when you heed 

The Quiet Voice

and submit

without knowing 

how or when or what or where

yet certain and reassured that

she is 

life itself

without whom 

you cannot exist

Why, she summons

the entire force of 

the Universe

to assemble at your feet

ready to 

fashion all things

as you please!

Don't blink. Don't Think.

Pay attention to me!

Can't you see

what I'm doing?

It's not as easy as you think

so watch ME

not 

him

even though

my eyes

follow his every movement

tight as a hawk

ready to pounce

and shred

at the slightest

hint

of a mis-step

an error of judgment

a wavering perception

a momentary doubt

Ah, never underestimate

the singular dedication 

of my 

preying eyes

Not for the briefest 

moment

a nanosecond of time!

In short

Don't blink.

Don't think.
