Understanding our Purity
 
I rise to watch you soar.
Looking down on that which you believe defines you.
I praise each moment you may close your eyes
And smile on our memory--
Pure-with absence of shame.
A glimpse of who you remain.

Your grasp, unbreakable--
A relentless clench.
Openness is all or nothing.
Vulnerability is the only path to love.

Understanding,
Truth is unchanging and obscure,
Always surrounding,
Waiting for blindness and resistance
To release.
