Puzzle pieces.

As we allowed our ears to be enlightened tonight,
another chamber of my heart was opened...
you see, I have never wanted to be more
clean
pure
true
since I have been surrounded by the light in you.

As we embark on a new way of cleaning our palette,
we lace our tongues with wasabi...
to start fresh with infant souls tasting
for the first time.

I am preparing my map,
so you know where I've gotten lost when the signs were hazy
so you know where I'd like to go by offering suggestions of how to
help me
help us
find our way,
as one.

I do not deny that I have scars.
Yet, I find myself getting frustrated
with my smoke filled environment.
In my mind I ask,
"How can I offer the best me when I'm hurting me internally?"
This is not a plea for sympathy.
Simply my personal desire to be a role model completely.
To me.
To you.
To US.
I am committed to this path of letting go,
I am committed to this path of purity.
You are offering a space for acceptance of
pains of yesterday unconditionally.
These actions are giving me faith.
Faith that has been questioned profoundly,
Faith that redefines itself every moment by
your very existence right in front of me.

To be with you means I have a chance
to be the me I've always dreamed of.
To be with you means I have a co-pilot
supporting this drive with grace and dignity.

I have never seen compatibility
that bleeds more delicately
through veins that give life
to gifted souls like you and me.

There is not an alternative course of destiny
for me.
I want to know you are by my side through
all of life's little mysteries.
