PITTANCE PAID IN INK (M.A.K.)

Folder: 
JOURNAL #27

I chance upon another

his name said he was yours

and my joy from memories past

upon hearing that very name

spoken aloud to me

stepped brilliantly forth

and hugged me so incredibly close

my breath forgot its path

as my pathetic ecstatic heart lurched

in silent surrender

the essence that was you

still so sweetly shields me

the simple thought of your dark

enveloping voice

can shut out some of the coldest realities

I've ever endured

I am my own greatest champion

because of you

you are here with me always

as deep as you've ever been

deeper still in many ways

death only thinks its stolen you

I just keep missing your shell

which is all too human

as I've seen

still, the most beloved part of you

is ever safe

your incredible deathless

unseparated soul

keeps whispering to me

BE STRONG

SOON MY MIEL

A LIFETIME IS NOT ALL THAT LONG

JUST A SERIES OF INHALED BREATHS

OUR FUSION OF SPIRIT WILL BE ALL THE

MORE SWEETER

AFTER THIS FORCED BANNER OF SEPARATION

WE SHALL HAVE AN ETERNITY TO BLEND

INTO EACH OTHER

UNRESTRAINED

God keeps vidual on our progress

but I miss you M.A.k.

I miss your balcony

I miss your laugh

I miss hearing you kiss my pictures good night

I miss every tiny little shared nuance of our

time together

the things in paradise I can not recall

but the presence of your soul there now

makes me long to return

to such joys of closeness

that never needs to sleep

its that very first infinitesimal

second of death that I so long for

for that is where your smile awaits me

and your abundantly offered happy  hugs

will be all mine to always keep

at last I'll be truly in Heaven

I'll have my M.A.K. ever always with me

paradise lost or regained

I think not

Paradise will stand instead

shaking her jealous fist at me

for my M.A.K. was never truly hers............
