The Promise of Meeting You




  
all those days and nights
spent without You
without longing for You
breath was only possible
for the promise
of meeting you one day

to undo, unravel me
leave me astounded
utterly helpless
full of a Love so big,
it swallowed me
swallowed my whole world

this terrible, awesome love
unreserved, wholehearted
like a shoreless ocean where
there is no difference
between drowning
and swimming
shore or wave

in which
i'm too intoxicated
to care

each and every part of me
drunk
on the miracle
that is You

become a dance of atoms
each one awake, alive,
spinning
singing with joy
because You are here
with me
