Steelhead Dream

I want her love like I want daylight. Like I want the stars. Like I want the deepest thought, like the truest knowledge. For days I stood on the edge of the abyss, for eons, for a lifetime. Through darkness I came but I was not part of it. I just saw it and fought it, sword and spear intact. I saw death. I was unmoved. I met the devil. He scared me but I was unswayed. From the deepest depths to the highest heights I have searched. From back alleys to bars to the back of minivans. I felt alone and worried so I thought. I fought. Even now I think, but I think of you. I feel love. Need you and will save you. I am moved by you. Your caring, your curiosity, your honesty. Your good intent. What may be will be. I can only say what I see. Starlight and hands clasped surrounded by grasses bathed in the night. Like life after death, eternity awaits beyond the universe be it utter darkness or pure light. What may be will be. Love me in my pain and in my pleasure as I paint the universe your favorite color. Love me as I stand before you awaiting reception. Love me in my past, through my present, in my hope and despair, whether pauper or prince, whether king or minstrel. Love me in my truth and memory. Love me living or dead, strong or weak. You sweetest is born of some undying place but do not worry, I will save you. I am moved by you. You move me. Trust; an unbroken bond; a sacred whisper; a special place be it an ancient city or a dusty town. What may be will be and love me and in the calm, brilliance, a flash before my eyes and I am alive living love. Oh calm, embrace me, I have seen light and joy. Love me. I will save you. Death we will not know. Oh joy. I am love distilled.
