The Sacred Masculine

When you embody
your essence
I become
more of myself —

that in your strength
I am invited into my softness;
that in your light
I am playful with my darkness;

and that on your lead
I am that slow, surrendering
presence
alongside yours.

If moments were turned into gold
that is how I would remember you —
how you feel like
when you complete me.
