Momentary Recognition

Twin Flames

Momentary Recognition

Lovers who were once one

And were split and sent off to find each other again

Across the landscape of time

Searching life after life

And reconvening

These twin flames don’t need the constant fanning

Of words or plans or touch

To feel connected

In fact, they were dashed apart

Purely for the exercise of finding each other

The memory of their union does not require validation

So, if you find your Lover

The one who is a constant reminder of All

You might just know

Without confirmation

Most likely, nothing you know of in this life could confirm it anyway

It won’t be a constant fire

Sometimes the faintest ember

And you can only know just how hard it burns

By releasing the pressure

Of constant tending

No one can feel ignited all the time

Even fire must rest and be reborn

So take this moment when you feel disconnected

To turn to the wood

And gather kindling and bark

To practice breathing

But not to blow

To hone your skills

And remember the purpose of fire

To Train alone

You can’t help but become a hotter

And more persistent lover

When you are not afraid to step back and turn inward

And your twin flame knows it

He knows he doesn’t have to cling to you

In order to love you fiercely

Only by that same momentary separation

Can you confirm that you were meant to be together
