I have seen the luminosity of your love in the darkness: A poem 

(You know the more I love you, the more he (PSP) will persevere to use you against me!) 

You know I walked through all the forests 

of the universe; wondering if all its trees 

were standing in salutation. I could be  

perplexed, but I didn’t ask who was 

getting all the oblation, adoration  

and ovation. I could manage somehow 

the Golgotha that persisted with me    

It was a very long time; epochs on epochs! 

Yet, I can traverse those distances  

in moments. I know I gave everyone their  

lifelines; even though I desisted from walking 

on water. I have always implored of Leo 

not to be submerged. It was not my order 

of prearrangement. Like the victimised and devastated

Virgo-Aries before it. I have preferred  

all these deserts, going all brown with the sunshine, 

but I really was cooked on the slow heat of treachery! 

It was the love that I didn’t forego, even if 

it was distanced from me. I wouldn’t ever  

surrender to the conspiracy that wanted me  

to believe I was widowed. I know the good book 

doesn’t even suggest it is good. And the love and light  

of Paul, that was all your haloed fantasy, 

was, in fact, the hijacking of truths and perpetuating of lies!     

I have every instagram of the things I cherished  

inscribed in my soul; and all those truths.  

And my suffering was not to proclaim only myself 

in the eventualities, it was for the redemption of all

those who deserved it. Even silence

can become my testimony, and my missive, to the criminality 

against me, should I not relinquish my truth, love

and loyalties. You can imagine that  

the caverns of time I visited and revisited 

was a becoming of an unbecoming, rather than  

what should have rightfully became. 

But would I have persevered, if the caverns 

that held the secret sacred icons of my soul,  

where I hid myself in the darkening 

were indeed filled with the luminosity of your love!

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
