Note to self: a metaphysical view of a poetic love

I’ve crossed the darkness between the stars,
beyond the beauty of beats and bars,
a song unfolds like a well-read book,
what's moving me now is the rhyming hook!

beats and a rhythm, bars sung in time,
as silence sings, the energy body comes alive,
each step a note, each breath a phrase,
it moves through time in measured ways

love is light with intimate grades,
its rhyming depths, it’s shifting shades,
love hums within the quiet space,
a force no distance or water can break

love travels - as if in a quiet space,
sometimes open, sometimes faced,
between the rhythm of sounds designed,
it sings from a heart that was born to shine

a future plain begins to rise,
a melody travels throughout the skies,
I chart my course knowing where l be,
each note I leave in the air between

love travels through the quiet space,
sometimes open, veiled and opaque,
between the rhythm of each beat,
it sings of a life born, a single seed

the future plain begins to rise,
a melody beneath clear new skies,
I chart a course with heart on sleeve,
releasing the past - aware of dreams

I’m a ghost in a folded time,
my voice it sings most every line,
across the stars, I still remain,
in every rest, in all terrains

I am not lost, as l realign,
a presence drawn, from love’s design,
as the song unfolds, the heart it grows,
between each pulse, the blood it flows.
