Lap around the sun

Another year has drifted by
passing at the blink of an eye.
Each blessing leaves me guessing what’s in store for me next
but I know my fate is in my hands.

It was a lovely loop around the sun
and in this moment of reflection free from haziness
I see how wonderful my life is.
All the love surrounding me, all the journeys,
the wild drunken nights and breathtaking views with beauty so blinding..
but experiencing these moments with the soul of my dreams is what elevates me.
My heart takes flight at the sight of his divine smile, his presence sets me free,
in his arms I wish to be for eternity.
He’s an angel on earth which the cosmos has graced me with,
our spirits entwined equally in flesh and in mind.
As our connection deepens and our love strengthens
my gratitude for this mysterious force grows and grows.

I know this life is precious, to me there are no more mundane or lonely moments,
I don’t want to waste the time I’ve been gifted in this realm.
So while I’m breathing and awake,
the old nightmares begin to break, the darkness deserts my mind and everything shines.
This lap around the sun leaves me feeling lucky to have made it this far.

I praise and thank the stars,
the sacred essence of every being we perceive to be separate,
for our gift of existence.
