//When You rEturn//

You return draped in black

The sword you carry is not the sword you left with

Now the handle of your soul is wrapped in a specific cord

Revealing neither worth nor value

But the self

the glint in your eye

Like a Raptor whose wing flaps with the strength of new found maturity

Your likeness bourne on all birds of prey and prayer alike.  You have been classified at each stage with none realizing your transformation is incomplete.

and I Love you from all ages and await your daily presence so I may decide what age i will be

When i express my love for you.

For everyday I do embody this very sentiment as it is part of my daily affirmation

Today I watch you,

MY hands under chin,

My eyes aglaze

I am a child in love

Dazzled as you remove your dress

Stretch your terrible wings,

My heart leaps into my throat

I am afraid

I AM paralyzed

Fear and Wonder

Until your eyes fall upon me

And my heart

does

freeze

And you wax a smile

And my heart does blaze

And I awaken in a path of flowers and grass underneath your window

And I know that you have gone again.
