Pranay Yog Poem by Suman Pokhrel

As you reside in the flame of my desires,
may I meet you in that same form each day
may I dissolve into your being,
as you are steeped in the ache of my longing.

May I hide you in the embrace of my fervent heart,
may I be cradled beneath the shadow of your love
may I explore every curve of your desires
and leave an imprint on your affection,
with the kiss of my love.
May I exchange the sweetness of the lips of your yearning
with the flare of my passionate affection.

May I peel away the layers of your hesitance,
and untie the wings of your dormant zeal.
May I caress the body of your fervent lust
and awaken the latent fervour of your greater being.

May I excite the drowsy flame of your passion,
may I draw forth the nectar of your desires
may I envelop myself in the bloom of your unfolding thirst
and enter the divine depths of your womanhood.

May I get united with you,
and
by melding each other within ourselves,
may we evolve into an inseparable unified form—
Blended together in oneness,
may we dissolve the divide between
man and woman, and woman and man,
and live in the wholeness of being.

May I melt in the blazing fire of your obsession,
may I stir every part of your sensitivity
to tremble with the intensity of my love
and fill every empty space within you.

May I satiate every unsaid thirst of yours
and feel your bliss.
May I dissolve into you,
and make you feel your completeness.

May I forever hide in the depths of your love,
melting
and spilling within you.

May I be eternally blessed to dissolve into you,
embracing your entirety,
may you remain unfettered forever.
and—
may I meet you
living in every moment,
as the form of Shakti that you are,
living as yourself, the embodiment of wholeness.

May I live within you, as a part of you,
melding you into a portion of myself.
May you live in me,
forever remaining the whole of yourself.

May we live like this; perpetually—
in the unified form of Shiva and Shakti.
Until the end of the universe,
may we live, ever becoming the complete whole.
