sometimes...

bereft of tears I shadow your steps into the vastness
it is for you to discover time
galaxy upon galaxy unfurl
blooming with treasures never touched
placed loving there for you to discover when you awake

I kiss you lightly and tell you I'm here
we will uncover the glory of what is and to come
in the needful pain travail with the knowledge the birth of a new world is here

I cry to the celestial ambassadors visiting this plane
I am forthcoming though I am in the shadows
glimmering with hope shining from the pain

it is as you allowed,
the master's plan

the rudimentary designs lack definition
and so it is so my art lacks the final touches
your artistry is so intricate I marvel

where is my place in all this?

if I journey will you journey with me?

or will I go alone not seeing you for an eon or so?

celestial bodies come together with a supernova of passion
then quietly depart shyness overcoming the moment

you would rather observe me from afar

I sense your greed
my morality frightens you
and really if I was grown up enough,
I would know I only lie to myself
I eat from your table then revert to my childish ways

Father forgive me for I have sinned...

how long has it been since your last confession?

Father it's been an eon since I last confessed
I am obscene in my neediness

can we go on from here?

I languish in the silence that follows

husbandmen, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned

will you see me no more?

now, I lay me down to sleep
sigh, in the bleak I am loved
