After

After
It was after I abandoned my faith that
I met the love of my life
It was after I disposed of heaven
That I found the meaning of rest
It was after my deity died
That I learned my own divinity
After all this I undertook the learning
Of happiness
And the meaning of it is
Your hand in mine
Your head in the bed
Your legs entwined with mine
Your heart heartily beating beneath my head
Your name, my name, melding
Like a melting of two metals
Like the unfurling of flower petals
Like true love choosing forever
Forever, happily ever
After
