starlight

 
I clothe myself in starlight...

walking in the celestial gardens  
I contemplate the beauty of the universes
my pain is in tune with the cosmic wavelength
he is mine and me his
 
there is a mortal joining
there is also an eternal oneness  
golden knots formed before the foundations
 
I cling to mortality  
my mortal coil wrapped so tightly about me
it confounds me
it is my frailty of understanding
 
he would not that I be blind
my internal understanding must be invoked
I was given a thorn in my side
it shall not be removed
in my arrogance I received it
to gain in humility
 
the bridegroom over eternities awaits my presence
I will be properly attired to greet him
my cloaks woven from wisdom gained
 
for now, I clothe myself in starlight  
until I'm received in the galaxies
knowledge internalized
