Forget what they told you about loveRemember what you really hunger for Temper the temptation To reach for that which you will never grasp Be humoured by the fickleness of your fantasies Untangle from delusion For the reality of love is more than you’ve dreamed of And nothing like you could imagine It is SO familiar So deeply intimate That your mind will doubt it Come, Come closer This, beloved, Is the relentless romance That does not fade or falter Even in your absence It is present There is no honeymoon phase, Yet this love is dripping With honey Like a fount that pours forth nectar From the core of existence Let it trickle in Drip by drip Quenching your eternal thirst I know you’re exhausted, my love From the endless search For that which was never missing Fathomless rest awaits you here – if you dare to let go As you drop your armour Be so enamoured That you forget your name Fall, Fall so madly in love Your soul knows how So, surrender Fall into the bliss of the abyss Let your arrows of desire Pierce the heart Of the one who was never, ever apart from you And so inextricably a part of you
