Take the road less travelled

Said a thought inside my head

That road is long and gravelled

But to treasures you'll be led

Take the next detour

Said a thought inside my head

Though it drizzles, maybe pours

But to sunshine you'll be led

The feet they keep to familiar path

Squashed is the thought inside my head

Then Spirit nudges without wrath

The road I walk is shred

You cannot reach the highest heights

If you cannot try be bold

Learn not to push away or fight

The voices of your soul

Quintessential Love

I am taking part in the A to Z Challenge via my blog Someday Somewhere.

For the letter "Q"  I wrote a poem on my definition of quintessential love which I am sharing here as well.

Come, wake up and love again

For I have lived through the aeons of time with you

We have traversed universes in a multitude of lifetimes

I have loved each beat of your heart, every thought in your mind

I have smiled at every rhythm your soul has orchestrated

And immersed myself in the ecstasy of your every moment

I have seen you in every aspect of my existence

And felt you in the minutest fibre of my being

I have merged my consciousness with yours

And thus bridged the chasm of this vast, endless cosmos

Wherever we are, we reach through thin veils

And blend together into one presence 

Now, and then forever.

Longing

I close my eyes to see yours

For they caress my soul

In the stillness of the night

Your whispers take control

I know I have been with you 

Since the beginning of time

You're elusive I can't reach you

To touch a moment sublime

My eyes they gaze across the sea

I listen with intent

I search each nook and cranny

Until my strength is spent

My heart it longs to be with you

Each day becomes a trial

My soul is restless and distressed

Each step feels like a mile

I close my eyes to see yours
For they pacify my soul

A moment of respite for me

When yearning has a hold.

You tried to reach me several times

Through nature, dreams, and songs

I did not hear the ringing tones

Oblivious I rode along

And then one day you showed yourself

In an unexpected way

How could I have missed you all these years

Seems like my life I threw away

The strange disjointed moments

Somehow fell into place

Like jigsaw puzzle pieces

And delicate crocheted lace

How could I have forgotten

The adventures that we carved

Your ID etched into my soul

The caller of my heart.
