Ego death

 

She will arrive in a taxicab

from my dreams, the starlight,

she will come from so far,

a satellite of my heart,

and I’ll let the ego die.

 

The walls built to

protect my fearful heart,

the stalled beats

that whimper within.

 

For now, there is no me.

Only us, and I will give all.

 

My worlds will show you stories,

they will create safe spaces for our

sailing souls to float.

They will open up to our shared whole.

The original dream,

a single cell split in two.

One me and one you.

 

And we will grow,

Together.

A tree whose branches reach

out to touch the ether.

 

And like a reverse Adam and Eve,

We will let our leaves fall

we will let ourselves walk tall

in this Eden we create

from the seeds of our story.
