~ the feminine remembered ~

"I've missed you",

Missed feeling your essence

In lifetimes

Since joined as one

Missed being led by the heart

To the edge

With fear of heights

Dismissed

Laying armor aside

As if always able

Revealing in innocence and vulnerability

Femininity remembered

Will I fly or fall

Take flight and soar

Or plunge

Moving willingly off the edge

Into the safety of your eyes

Our wings unite

"I've missed you", my voice soft
