I thoughtprobe behind my eyelids
Seeking a way to touch your mind
Reaching out mentally, desperately
Attempting to ascend the astral plane
To launch my soul’s essence on a wave to you
But I am stymied
Bound within myself
My core exploding countless thoughts and dreams
Each moment contains a universe unleashed
This heat and boundless energy corralled
By the gravity of the overburden of this life
In the crucible of flame all is pulverized
Reduced to the essentials
Those isolated particles dance and bounce
Conspiring to send love’s photons on their radiant journey
But first they crawl
Held back and blocked
By burdensome thoughts
Fears and barriers unseen
But the radiance of love persists
Inevitably navigating to the surface edge
Where, with explosive flare
Love bursts the tension of existence
To fly across time and space
To shower warmth on your sweet and gentle face
A celestial greeting
A solar kiss
