Pen Pals (Using Words in the Key of Life)

 

You speak love to me in my native tongue as you write from your heart

In the flow of your ink
you teach me your language
using my own words and inflections
You guide me to the sacred knowledge
of who you really are
and into the fuller awareness
of what you actually are to me

The emotions expressed in our written words
are a Lifeline
And a Baseline
that bind us together

They are an intricately interlocking, solid foundation

Keeping the two of us happily intertwined
and united
In ways far beyond the deepest physical levels

Our Union,
a spiritual, symbiotic coexistence
where the flourishing of one is the lifeblood to both

Your written smile and heartbeat as much a part of me
as my ink-strong muscles and breath
are a necessary,
vital part of you
