in

this strength
in me
i can not explain
this something i carry
with me everywhere
it is real
as my heartbeat
sure
as my breath
it is on me
closer than skin
it is startling
as first nascent orgasm
breathtakingly sweet and unexpected
frightening in its
depth of gravity
it is quiet
as an infant's sigh
yet consuming to consciousness as
violent oceans
it is peaceful
as flower's pure countenance
it is dark as
blackest midnight
something which compels
this force
within
this force
without
it surrounds
envelops
consumes
with me every moment
that i am aware
reassuring me in sleep
protecting
transforming
enlightening
arousing
understanding

it is You
