Eden, I Land
I knew that am empty
Am hollow and through the harrowing
Sojourn to identify myself, to complete the missing piece
I had to explore, to swim oceans and cruise dilapidated Sahara
Just to ensure that I reach you
I kowtow, not at evanescing of my pride
But doing so gives me ride, sweeping me to the long coveted land of wonders
For many years I have searched, for decades I have excavated
The obscurity and voices of confusion long ignored
Coz inherently I knew how beautiful you are
The grace that embodies you
Elegance that you’re clothed in
And how you love roses at the setting sun
I saw myself gape at your sight, so heavenly, so angelic
Each of your members stood in readiness, dripping for the
Long awaited master
The ripples that ran through me, the joy that sprang deep within
As your fingers reached for my arm, expertly guiding me
Along the contours proficiently curved
Through the smooth pristine valley reserved
Unto the penultimate land of milk and honey
Let your sweet voice be my lullaby every night
Let my shoulder pillow your sorrows and rid fright
Let your magical touch caress my mind to stillness
To wipe all that I have encountered unto our fruitfulness
Let you, be me, be usness
Coz our union is magic inexplicable
With pristine tone of your skin incorruptible
In you, and you alone
Do I wonder in awe, at the works of god so marvelous
Flawless,
That I open my gates of love to you
To access bales upon bales
Of raw love unopened, untouched
Travel through my mind then
Listen to my heart’s rhythm
Caress through my thoughts
And always tell me,
I love you as you do!
