To Walk In Your Truth
BJ Woodworth

To walk with her

walking with her
talking with her
longing to be with her
her beauty is staggering
her breasts are full and firm
she is wonderful, playful and intriguing
YET…
seeing her is blinding
my impairment leads me further down the path
knowing her is ignorance
which grants me wisdom?
intimacy with her is distancing
leading to dependence
fleeting and compelling
the unattainable search
the closer I am to her the farther I’ve to go
the more her radiance shines the clearer I see
but I want to flee because of me
she calls me further up and further in
her voice is captivating
so I journey toward her
wading amidst obtuse fogginess
the mystery drags and draws me
longing yet kicking and screaming
contagiously spreading throughout my body
when I arrive I have farther to go
endless and relentless all the same
she is ever with me
but never enough
the longing is the gift
