Melding [Astrally]

by Paul Tristram / August 14th, 2022

A Deeper [Level of] ‘Intimacy’
… with you…
led me to
an ‘Out-Of-Body Experience’
… where I followed
the invisible footsteps
… of your Inner Affection
to a turquoise calm, cool pool.
There was a seashell,
next to a pebble-smooth rock,
which was big enough
to comfortably sit down upon
… so I did, happily.
Raising the seashell to my ear
… your Natural Scents,
and Essence… Swirled
free from inside, and Rushed
into my ‘Senses’
… with a quick WHOOSH!!!
I pricked the deepest part
of myself… upon a thought
of us… Parting Ways…
and SNAPPED myself awake
with a Frown of Determination.
