Sunburnt Love

Unfamiliar faces and the guttural groans of sheep from afar.

Prayer calls forming echoes against the concrete walls.

Chiming bells chant in the ear.

Cats moving through the walled world like fish in a river

My love smiles from his heart

Wide teeth and opened eyes, filled with pools of love and life.

Long embraces

Aching for the warmth of the womb of where it all started.

A family being formed. A new norm.

Rhythmic love,

Screams from the soul fueled by the drums of the ancient past,

Hearts beat faster,

Feet lift from the ground and bodies bounce

My love sings from his heart

A spark turned to a fire

A soul brought home.
