WITHIN HER LAIR

Mysterious she is
A river running deep
Underneath so much going on
Underestimated at every turn
Too many fear they will be burned
If they get too close to her fire

Or will they drown in her passion
Unending emotional maturity beyond compare
So many trying to get close
Only for a short time
Her intensity shines brightly
Blinding those who are too weak to see

For her reality is multi-dimensional
Capturing the essence of another plane
Existing on so many levels often at once
Limitless compassion & understanding
Comforter to so many
Empathy felt within her embrace

She is the mystery you want to know
But only the brave dare to spend time
Within her lair
If you do she will challenge your very essence
Survive and you will be closer to heaven
Ecstasy only a goddess can bare
No one else will ever compare
