to my goddess

[usednails]

the cold hits my skin
my feet are buried into the cool and damp grass
back to my roots
one with the night
eyes closed and open
she stands before me

pure
beautiful
ever changing
always the same
there for me when i need her most
gone some nights but still she remains

arms are outstretched and then held upward
she offers no heat but i can feel her warmth
her grace and her love

tonight i'm yours
and you are mine
for those few moments i can be
the connection that you so long for
in this space between spaces
the damp earth below me

i can feel her breath on my skin
it is cool and refreshing
i can taste her in the air
as sweet as the grass beneath me
i am vulnerable and perfect and flawed all in the same glance

there is nothing that can tear us from this moment
from this lifetime
this eternity we share
