Atlantean Mimicry

And I started to hear it again
But this time it wasn’t the end

Florence + The Machine
I wait for the fall 
And I can hear it call
Like the water an age ago
I was with you and her, you know
In the presence of priestess
And who else? (You have one guess)
I was alone though
When I was birthed into the form you know
With no guidance to follow
And all my dreams were hollow
When I would catch one it would evaporate
And leave me in an altered state
Til the sun shone at fourteen
And Yeshua came and woke the dream
Up from where it lay
So forgive me if I trust him, okay
And you made a slur against his name
Now I can’t look at you the same
Because the one I will defend
Is more than a best friend
Can or will ever be
It is the root of you and me
I look away from your eyes
And something of our beauty dies
As desperation creeps across your visage
And it makes me feel kind of sad
And sorry for you, so
I let you back in but you know
That my terrain is rocky ground
The mountains in between Ireland and landNewfound
That once held so much more between
And every scream
Has it’s birth in the dissolution
Of that one resolution
When we gave our spirit to flesh
And lost the wings that we regret
But I feel mine burst through my skin
And across the ocean I fly to him
Whispering in his ear
Wake up, wake up, my dear
And somehow he hears my cry
And refrains from a goodbye
That I could not make stay
Not in my brightest day
And he clasps his hand in mine
And for a moment we stop time
As we remember who we are
I’m running my hand through the star
That shines above your hair
A kind of halo that just is there
And no rivers can run this out to sea
Because you are at the core of me
And somewhere we are one
Like the birth of the sun
In the sky so long ago
When the Creator said “Let There Be Light” so
There was
I love you just because

Oneness With You

They talk about sexuality like they know what they do
When oneness is split in two
It seeks to return to what it was
And because
There was once no you and I
There was only spirit that does not die
And in my androgyny
I found someone who complemented me
And there is a longing to unite
With the person with which I fight
I scream down the phone
Don’t leave me alone
You retort
“I don’t like your sort”
I lose hope
And the ability to cope
So I manipulate
At least that’s what you call it when we’re in that state
And it’s all ashes and thunder
But, still, I have your number
And I can’t help but call
Though I’m facing a brick wall
Like Spider-Man when he loses his ability
And slides down the rock face (it looks kind of silly)
So I just pull away and out
I watch your mask of self doubt
Turn to horror and a “no!”
I pretend not to care though
When I push, you pull
And my cotton wool
Pajamas are missing something essential
An arm around them so reverential
And I don’t think I’ll ever bear child
But you still drive me wild
In the ether we share
And I swear
It’s mountainous prose
As we travel the roads
Looking very like two well worn skins
And it’s always she and him
Til we merge into unity
We kiss and our love is set free
