Just Beyond the Hurricane's Eye

Just Beyond the Hurricane's Eye


To dream of love, enduring, unending
and feel the passion flow
like waves of turbulent water
simmering just beyond the
eye of a hurricane,
one must release and relinquish all
misconceptions,
judgments,
presumptions,
and inhibitions
at the threshold of paradise
in order to cross the path
of heavenly perfection
and step into the vortex of eternal chaos
where one has not conscious thoughts or control.
It is the place where one simply feels
the terrifying tremendous onslaught
of pleasure and pain mingled into a
single pounding, soul wrenching pulse
which shocks the heart
and befuddles the mind.
And in this dreamy mist covered state
one can see the gates of heaven open up
with one single touch of the hand.
One can see the unperceived,
and imagine that which is unconceived
within the safety and warmth
of a gentle lover's embrace.



Author's Notes: Love is a turbulent emotion, as is passion. Its a roller coaster ride of ups and downs, and the nausea that sometimes follows. But a single moment of pure love, is worth more in this lifetime than an eternity of self awareness and solitude.
