Augmentation

Not unacquainted
yet holding still
past attempts tainted
by utter self-will

From a deadly place
of perceived fatal pain
seeking solace and grace
now on knees again

Inward realisation
of soul’s decline
necessary augmentation
to spiritually align

A solution outlined
initiating the quest
failures left behind
gratefully blessed

Familiar, this passage
still, something anew
direction without damage
a fevered path to pursue
