Promised Land

I have found
The land
Of milk
And honey
And I never
Want
To leave

Curled toes
Relax
With you

Chest
Free
From the constant
Seize
With you

Breath
Slows
Makes love
With my heart
And I
Come home
To me
With you

Soft
Doe sigh
When it is finally time
To say goodbye

Peace
Free
Eyes
Able
To see
The beauty
All around
Me

But
Not for long
Never for long

Time brings
Boulders
Of chaos
And fear
Screams
It’s not safe
Here

And I once again
Need
Comfort
And care
Assurance
Inspiration
The intimacy
Of your melodic voice
That hits that note
Just right
Signaling
All of the pieces of me
Back home

Home
Home
Home
To the body
That stands
For
One
Precious
Moment
In the promised
Land
