I long for the depths.
My depths. 
For the feeling of embodiment.
Where I am everywhere within mySelf. 
Where I am everything inside of mySelf. 
It's a watery. 
Fiery. 
Wonderland. 
Dark.
Nourishment. 
Abounds. 
And I am home. 

It is here that I write. 
It is here that I create. 
It is here that I am. 

I long for the depths. 
And I am not always able to reach them.
Or maybe that is not right. 
The swirls and eddies. 
Carry me to the surface.
There is necessity there. 
I know.
The doing of my everyday happens. 
The projects get completed. 
The world is maintained.
There is nothing wrong with living closer to the surface. 
It is just as much me as anything.
Everything.
Else.
It is simply. 
That I miss.
Feeling like the spark of life. 
Lives between my hips.
And it is mine to dance with. 

The return. 
To the depths. 
Is a journey.
A choice. 
One where I must choose. 
MySelf. 
Over everything. 

There are times.
When I have to weave mySelf. 
Back into my being.
Where I have to bring mySelf in. 
With a siren's call of my own making. 
This is one of the songs that I sing. 

{an incantation to return to the depths}

Come close.
Closer even still. 
Feel the pull. 
Know.
That even when you think that you have gone far enough. 
And you still can't find the what you are looking for. 
Know.
What you wish for. 
Is beyond the next breath. 
All that is required.
Is the surrender. 
Where you stop pretending that the map.
Of what was.
Will bring you to what is waiting.
Give yourSelf over.
To the knowing. 
That a new path is carved.
With your simple desire.
To live in the wild depths.
Celebrate.
The uncharted corridors. 
Be willing.
To find your way through them.
Live for the adventure. 
As that is what you have always done.
And each time.
You are given the keys. 
To treasures.
Grander than you can ever imagine

In darkness and density...
With love and fire~
