Resolution

There is a softness in the way you speak to me

Which completely disarms me

The words you use

Open a pathway that leads me

Deeper into my heart

Where there are guarding the portals

Sentinels whose aim it is

To save this tender one from harm

But at the sound of your name and your voice

They lay down their weapons

And fall asleep

As I begin to loosen too

The bindings that kept me safe

And when through the ethers

I feel the rush of energy

Bringing contraction

That let me know your soul is near

All my past entrapment activates

As I feel the power

Of irresistible force

Meeting immovable object

My ancestors are there in the shadows

Calling out their pain

Letting me know you are

Both the answer and the resolution

For bringing you home

Is an echo of something so old

So longed for

Because sadly the son

Would never again see the father

He left behind

After his mother died

And how the parent’s heart ached

For his return

Across the waters

Winds are stirring the ocean

As our gene pool becomes restless

There locked behind doors

That are invisible

I sense the ones still carrying their ancestral burden

As I pray for their freedom

I only know this

It is your softness I ache for

And when you write

“Love makes us realise

That both of us are one soul

Living in two bodies

The physical separation of our bodies

Can not divide our thoughts”

I know that when you are

Thinking of me

I am sensing your thought waves

Sounding out their calling

Far across the ocean

To the body that contains

The missing part of your soul
