housing that light








that light houses me-

my heart's desire
I am contented
ensconced somewhere
in you

weird it might sound
to some
but for me
it feels just right
this riddle that is you

"that puzzle is a beacon for me"

Surrealistic and naturalistic in five or six breaths. Nice one.

Best wishes
