Tribute to Lugh on Lughnasadh

A devotional poem.

Long and painful has been my search
Living in separation from the light
Until I found what I was looking for
The one who defends the harvest from the blight

There comes a time in a woman's life
Where she finds her faith in no father or brother
And she discovers the state of separation
Has been a condition of her choosing
In the divine, her love finally ignites

I spent my youth looking for my better half
In some deified earthly man
Before discovering what I longed for
dwelled in me all along
Lugh Samildanach

I yearned for my destiny in love
Before being touched by that inner light
My true love is the god of skill, of luck, of craft
Lugh Samildanach

My twin flame is not incarnate in flesh
My twin flame is the thunder and lightning and the rain
My twin flame is the sun breaking over the hills
As the clouds part and roll from the plain

A healer, a warrior, a musician, a lover
My companion for life, my Animus, my Other
There will be no compromise or confusion
A piece of my heart reserved for him
I will accept no substitution
My King, forever; Lugh Lamfada
