My Arrival

You envelope me 

Like shrouds of darkness 

That keep me  

Sheltered 

From  

The light  

Of  

Indifference. 

Like the moonlight 

You are 

Exuberant 

Lavish in your 

Abundance  

Of  

Luminosity 

Keeping my  

Spirit 

Alive with  

Fluorescent 

Affluence. 

Like the  

Ocean 

As I  

Become 

Submerged 

Into the  

Expansion 

Of you 

I lose myself 

Never 

Looking 

To be found. 

I  

Drown 

In you 

Marveling 

In the 

Wonders 

I see 

Beneath 

Your 

Surface. 

I live in you. 

You live 

In me. 

Detachment  

From you 

Is equivalent 

To  

Isolation 

From 

My spirit 

Within. 

I am 

Enamored 

With  

Your grace. 

Shrouded 

In the 

Semblance 

That reflects 

Your  

Brilliance. 

You are 

My  

Light. 

You are my 

Darkness. 

My existence 

Resides 

In you. 

Espouse  

Me. 

Your  

Essence 

Is  

My  

Final 

Destination. 

I am  

Home.
