The Source of Yearning (March 2023)

I feel my heart stirring

A heart so long on its own

Longing now

Leaning into a search for love

 

The fluid ache

Resonating

Physical desire

Heart like a wide, open landing spot

 

Leaning, pulling, opening

A strong wanting for closeness and intimacy

Someone who’s there for me

And I for them

 

Showing up in a bold way

A yearning that stands tall and speaks the truth

Clarity of purpose

Yet patient and trusting

 

An aspect of myself long dormant

Split off, this wanting for closeness

My heart leans forward, peering out

Where are you out there in the world?

 

The intensity of yearning speaks to the intensity of connectedness

The depths within are completely open, receptive, and with me…even are me

My heart’s desire, all that

I smile from the pleasure of it

 

This deep richness in my belly, solid and true

Everything I could possibly want, just right here

It holds me

Strong, confident, caring

 

Present, this feeling of well-being resident

A thereness here

In daily life

To be aware of the constantly changing beauty

 

Love meeting love

Blossoming, welling forth

Magnified by shared recognition

Walking along under the full moon together
