Petals On A Stream Poem by Beach Leanbh

Diamond heart set on sapphire sky. Not wanting, everlasting
Months now gone, perished quickly. Love hunting. Ever fasting
To be ago again. Swathed in sublime arete. Patterned kisses typing on my lips
Speak to me with your wordless kisses. Narrate my soul again.
Rend the heavens subtle kisses. Soar with me and depart our bodies

Perfect and sacramental before me. Set upon an unseen altar
I worship your blood, your marrow, your breath – replenishing your soul anon
I pray to your bone, your muscle, your sinew – providing you with flawless frame
Your priest bellowing upon a mountaintop of your divinity I proclaim

Petals float down a winding stream. Adjoined through forces beyond their own
Energy and currents flow to keep them entwined. Each the other never alone
Alike our spirits linked together, ever connected, ever fixed, ever coupled
A bond strong as the river, fragile as the petals

I fear to lose my partnered petal. That our binding force would disconnect
Fused and fearless I’m boundless unto, Divided I hesitate unsure and weakened
Both loved and dreaded are the binding currents, providing joy yet threatening deletion
For why would life alone suffice without my hearts completion
