A Voyage Interrupted and Resumed

by Aaron Milavec

Confess to me all of your sins, no matter how large or small.
Listen to my sins and know that they also have veins of gold.

I will never again hurt you knowingly in any little way,
Not with sharp words or with fists or with cruel silences.

I pledge myself to redefine what it is to be your Lover,
And YOU will be my Goddess, and I will have no Other.


Thank you, thank you, thank you for opening your heart again
And recovering the good times and spontaneous laughter we've shared.

The storm has passed and I can again join you on deck and rock you in my arms.
We can raise the headsail together and hear it snap in the salty-scented wind.

We can now resume our voyage into those uncharted places in our hearts
Where we are bound together on a journey where no one has gone before.
