Dark Surrender

Into Bliss

By Julie O'Hara - Author, Poet and Spiritual WarriorPublished 4 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

There is a dark surrender

That can only be found and felt in the

Deep flowing darkness of the witching hours

Deep at night

Where even shadows hide within their own shadows

There is no light, but there is warmth

So much warmth and heat

Exploding from your heart and smooth body

Spooning against me.

Pressed up against me.

Are my eyes open?

Or are they closed?

I cannot tell.

I am floating in the sooty bliss

Of ashes left over from the flames

That try to consume our individuality

While absorbing and drowning in the essence of us.

That is all there is.

Us, you and me.

And I surrender to the dark, soul-baring

Descension into us.

A deep dark surrender

That only you can guide me through.

Will we completely merge this time

Or explode into flames again?
