Welcome Back True Feral Love

Rekindled...

By Elyssa MaridueñaPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I never knew how much of me, I had locked in you.

A sense of connection that had been lost, has now been regained

and now the expansiveness of my heart is felt again.

The spark in my eye shines unafraid,

the sass in my ass has got its groove back

and is unapologetically tantalizing once again.

The snark in my laugh has been resurrected to its full blasphemous glory.

My love and soul connection to you, feels as roaring and adventurous

as a waterfall during a thunderstorm.

Joy is bursting from my smile.

The raw creature that is my true self has been set free form its captivity

and is free once more to mate wildly as she pleases with her mate.

- The knight of light,

the king of the wild kingdom,

the whisperer of spirits,

the shaman of the soul plains.

I love you. I've always said that and I meant it;

but it was part felt,

part fact and part faith

every time that I said it.

But now I say I love you and feel it as a savage excitement,

tickling my bones and flesh.

Now I say I love you and I say it clear

and not as a project that I'm working on.

Now I say I love you

AND WANT TO SHOUT IT OUT AT MIDNIGHT!

Let it shatter everyone's dreams, it's fine;

for everyone needs to bear witness to true - feral love

at least once in their lives.
