Perhaps, the original sin is birth or separation from Mother.
Inside Mother’s womb, I was one with her. But now, I am

separate,
different,

&

alone.

Forever, I search for reunion and the perfect oneness and yet,
I fear the intimacy of love.

Will I be engulfed by the other and lose my identity?
Swallowed by my beloved, will I die in a dark, selfless universe?

If I do not submit to love, I am condemned to wander across a
bleak, empty earth.

Yet must I risk all for love-this dark oneness that might set me
free?
