Synchronicities
Loving in Alignment
“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
—Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
It’s been awhile since I’ve posted. The break was necessary. I’m unsure if I’m back to posting weekly again or not, and that’s okay. Nothing forced gets posted round these parts. What I do know for certain, is that I’m back in my writing flow. The intention behind my writing has shifted— an expected change that comes along with growth and expansion. While happily experiencing life, I’ve fallen in love again with the intimacy of writing on paper, the feel of the pen, the ebbing and flowing of the process. It’s helped me stay grounded and present. A reminder to slowdown and have fun.
It was another hyperactive night and the gummies hadn’t kicked in yet. So I did the thing again where I asked to be sent some random words for a poem. They enthusiastically indulged my late night delirium and began to ponder.
“How many words?”
“Like 10 or more if possible”
(Imagine a comical gif of a duck sweating cause I don’t feel like putting it here lmaooooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣)
“Ok 6”
A few moments later I was sent six words, and then an additional four. You’re curious about the 10 random words now, yes? Good because of all the random words I’ve been given, these were the most random words of all. No, seriously! Just look at them!
asteroid
crow
anatomy
tangerine
sensibility
verse
hidden
tale
perfect
mother
Any who, I didn’t even get to writing straight away because I was distracted by, umm, other things 😅. So, I took the following 3 weeks sitting with the words. Around week two I decided to move things from the notes app to a legal pad, then moved them from a legal pad to a new journal, and then things got to flowing. I really enjoyed the intimacy of the process of writing this one, and how it came to life on it’s on time. Enjoy! And yes, there is a voiceover with this one 🤗🤗.
Synchronicities
The Universe speaks in synchronicities
Experiencing life with you is an active manifestation
Evidence of conversations between a mother’s prayer and spirit teams
We hopped timelines until we collided with a divine meeting of the minds
Quantum leaping from dream to dream until they became reality
A tale of two hearts written in the stars
We rearrange constellations with our existence
moving at an intentional pace
Patience lays the foundation
and we begin to build from the perfect blueprint
creating this safe space
The Universe speaks in synchronicities
Each time our eyes meet
we let glances linger too long
and something deep within crows
happily turning glances into gazes
heavy with the weight of curiosity
Hidden feelings revealed through actions
now we communicate telepathically
A scent reminiscent of citrus
Ripe and sweet
like a tangerine picked at its peak
Now love hits like limonene
Mixing energies
where passion meets verse
like an ultimate dance
between serotonin and dopamine
The Universe speaks in synchronicities
when we love with a poetic sensibility
like a presence that feels like a sudden warmth on bare skin
Or like when our bodies touch
and our eyes lock
allowing us to see glimpses of the beauty written in our story
in the simple way we breathe in sync
Here is where passion meets compatibility
and chemistry peaks the interest of hands adept at exploring anatomy
Explorative fingers turn curves into sacred maps
The compass protected by the chest recalibrates and adapts
Always aligning us with each other
Devotion won’t let us stray too far from one another’s orbit
like asteroids flirting with the gravitational pull of Mars and Jupiter
The Universe speaks in synchronicities
and it sounds like
Softness
Love
Peace
Freedom
Ease…
