Love Poem: Hard Road

Hard Road

You and I have never 
been together 
anytime
anywhere
ever

in this life

Yet at the end of this hard road
I love you
you're my home
every time
every place 
everywhere I go

And I know that you know
all I want is to hold you 
at the end of this hard road

My blanket of stars my glowing moon
I hold you I feel you I drink you
everywhere I go
Your spirit is my home
all alone always with you

and I know that you know
all I want is to find you 
at the end of this hard road

left it all to be on my own
to chase the wind
my heart of gold
the one I've always
and never known

and I know that you know
all I want is to find you 
at the end of this hard road

In another life 
we touched the stars
flesh consuming,  soul burning
love on fire, nuclear infinity
fusion and fission, elemental energy
life giving life

somewhere in that long ago
spirits fused together
 
now atoms blown apart
drift slowly back together

and I know that you know
all I want is to find you 
at the end of this hard road
