I am willing to stay with you
breath for breath
through the constriction
through the panic.
When I stay with you
that which is not true leaves
and what is true stays.
I say this to all that is outside of me
but also to that which is within me
to the one who wants to run
because SHE is also
the one who wants to be consumed
and dissolve into the fire of the divine.
To merge with the light and dance
with the wind and to know
the stories of the birds and the flowers.
To make love on the earth with the earth.
To stop time and go beyond the space
SHE knows.
This is why I am willing to stay.
All I ask of you is that you stay with me until
it is time for us to part.
