Heart Continued...


Heart continued…

 

Once upon a time

something like a keyhole beaming through a golden light....

 

Presently speaking now,

January 4th 2020,

cemented statued hands

cradling and enclosing heart.

 

Hanna...

 

Move outside

Dark and tempestuous night

breathe in the cold

and the dark

exhale.

Breathe fuller and hold

and exhale more.

Heart is slowing,

face and ears cooling,

chest opening,

sight fading and now, 

sinking.

still dark all around,    

"I am ready...."

 

Statued hands beginning to crack

cemented hands disintegrating

and chest opening.

Cadmium Golden light bursts outward.

 

Heart is fully open.

All frailties of mind will be banished.

I am ready.

 

What happens in a few hours will be what will be…

I get to see her again!

and to be heart with her now and always.

Heart.
