adrift

Posted on Updated on

winged freedom
nudging gently
white nakedness
floating midair
quietly fading
in pure light

wild sandalwood burns
scattering freely
diffused thoughts
coming together
flowing apart
slow dancing
to eternal music

leave me here
unto myself
forever adrift
in holy suspension

    I love that subtle union and the tinge of darkness as everything drifts apart only to come together with the slow dancing… Urgency and calm, joy and paranoia – I think that’s what “holy suspension” really is for a lot of people, and I love how you’ve just NAILED it! That state of everything and anything just beautifully coexisting. It’s a wondrous realm you’ve created with this one!
