A Love Letter to Me: A Valentine’s Special

My Body

 

In the dark, your soulful eyes glow, holding the universe in its gaze

You let it all in, the good, the bad, the ugly and you make your choices

Your hips in rhythm, sway to the beat in your mind that only you hear

Like Yemanja, the flowing rivers glisten on your supple skin, flawless

 

My Mind

As the birds caw and the hounds howl, basking in the sunset

You watch the sunrise and understand how everything is nothing

From one we come, to one we go, all fragments of the universe

You let it all in, the good, the bad, the ugly and you make your choices

 

My Soul

You’ve been here before, the vibrations and the water, you remember

The ringing bells in the distance, the herbs simmering in your earthenware

You let it all in, the good, the bad, the ugly and you make your choices

One with the universe, you spread virtue and love on your path, content

 

My Journey

Sometimes, you forget the path that you are on and wander blindly

Pursuing what is not yours, leaving behind a trail of regrets, disconsolate

Now, you understand that paths taken are lives lived-hopeful, relentless

You let it all in, the good, the bad, the ugly as you make your choices

 

With all my love, Lami
