Rain The Poet Pt. II

Rain was kind enough to give me the privilege of posting one of her poems, titled

AN AGAPE CONNECT

Even when the wine runs out and the roses wither

We’ll still have each other

I look back over my life and try to imagine a time when you weren’t here

And I can’t

You were here before I knew you

Before I felt your embrace

Before the sound of your voice carved curiosity in my spirit

You were right here

I’m so enchanted because I remember you

Do you remember me?

I met you in your past to be present  in your future

I lay beside you in your mother’s womb preparing you for this day

The intimacy we shared was more than just a mere encounter
It was an opportunity for us to conjoin, bridge, and grow

We connected, then departed in skin only to expand in spirit

We had nothing to lose but time

And to assure that time did not delete us

I stored remnants of myself inside of you

Left my fingerprints across your chest as the birthmark of my existence

I know the story of your scars

I was that healing memory that always lingered in the basement of your mind

I sat quietly crouched amid your thoughts

Rolodexing your dreams

Reference me in the index of your reflections

I was there, I was always there

Your mind is full of unanswered questions

Your tongue of muted expressions

Ladle me beneath the riddled arch of your palate

Yearn to define our purpose

I felt you beckoning,

So I summoned you back in spirit and dared you to map my physical
You were so euphoric at the thought of convergence, you sought me

You traveled many lands in search of me

Only to return to the place from which you departed

To find me standing here before you

A beautiful extraction of your deepest dreams

Materialized in flesh

Silently our shadows approach

You touched me and the roots of our souls connected

Billow up softly around me

I’m on tiptoes trying to reach myself

If I fall, then cool, chuckle if you must

But allow me to pause and overlook your flaws while you make me comfortable with mine

Secure our vision of inerrancy within each other

Long after the anticipation of your first touch, the desire still lingers

Touch me again. Touch me safe

Touch me back to the womb

Hold me protected

Your strength is your beauty

Your beauty is my weakness

Your essence is like fresh air to me

I inhale your calm to exhale the journey of my dreams

The flight upon which I soar is your soul

Carry me beneath your wings,

Stretch me wide across the open fields

Plant memories inside of me

Crop our thoughts in unison

Harvest our future

Through many obstacles, we stand…An infinite bond, we maintain

An Agape connect, spiritual and unselfish

Our love is like a poetic story that rewrites itself…

A prodigiously endless tale

Trademark what’s in our hearts right now

Patent this moment 

Make us last by always keeping Him first

And we’ll continue to grow as one

Through the grace of God

We’re blessed to have met again
