Thoughts #17
I see The Fool in front of me. She has always mocked my reluctance. Prancing off the cliff into the waves below. Blissfully carrying her blossoming rose, satchel over her back that basks in the setting sun. She holds no worries, just unbridled hope in the newness one’s next life chapter brings. And I watch from my lonely throne, face placid and firm. Grasping my staff in one hand, and a sunflower delicately held in my other, the stem pinched between my left index and thumb. A promise waiting to be told, an oath yet to be sworn.
I feel as though I’m one dream away. In the vast darkness, I ran my fingers across the patterned shades of Jupiter, patiently overlooking its journey back into my soul. Venus circling my body, waltzing in space amongst stars that implode before my eyes. The dustings sewn into my arms, my heart illuminating its colors that embody this loving freedom I know I could get used to.
And at the edge of our universe, I hope to find you.

Surrounded by the millions of meteors streaking in bold, fiery lines, shining upon your smile. Sitting in your own regal power, one hand gently balancing your staff, the other empty. Waiting on my promise, an oath held on the face of your lips. Your crown looks as heavy as mine, but that’s never stopped you from holding your gaze at my unsure expression.
The Fool grins at us, humming ballads of affections we only hear for each other. Knowing now, I see the bottom of this cliff, the water below no longer looks unrelenting and chaotic. As long as my hand is in yours, I’d be willing to leap in full faith, that our love will teach us to swim with the tides. Floating in the ocean, under the blue Sagittarian moon, my arms reaching towards your shoulders that will always keep me steady. Our royal facades abandoned in this sea, washing on shore your calmed Temperance, and my soothing Empress. Gold cups full of admiration, loyalty and kindness.
Jupiter and Venus are glowing up above in our dreams,
We’re just one step closer….
