Beloved
here is a heart
longing that pours out for you
across the space between the stars

Beloved
I recognize meanness
and I learn to avoid
rather than confront

Beloved
why do I long for the mean
to love me anyhow?
why do I care?

Beloved
I am truly loved by loves
truly deeply ocean rift of love
why isn't that enough?

Beloved
I want love to fill everyone
and spill out of the house
the yard the street the sky

Beloved
I want love so strong
everyone walks around bewildered
what is this feeling?

Beloved
I feel love that strong
from you, always
I want to return it

Beloved
blessings on the atoms
blessings on the stars
blessings on you and all of us

a part of you
