She Remembers

She remembers 

Forged in fire and anger 

Swallowing water, current taking her deeper 

Held by the soil, like a snake nestled in her coil...

She remembers 

Torn by the fear of letting go and the desire to go with the flow

Pegged to the bed by her lover cradling her head under the cover

Swimming naked underneath the full moon, liking chocolate from a spoon

She remembers

The ache in her neck from the weight on her shoulders 

The tears in her eyes from those who could not meet her 

The sound of her Soul, muffled and undercover 

She remembers

The longing for Him left a mark on her lips

The longing for Home hidden deep in her bones

The longing for Love found not in the sky above but within the silence of her own heart

Distant geese take flight as the crickets serenade us good night 

And she awakes to remember 

The magic & mystery that lives within Her.
