Touch me
And feel the cry of eons
In my soul.
I long for Discovery.
Bless me with Knowing
And not turning away from the Unknown.

A star in my sky
Your face alight with love.

Sacred light
Candlelight
And incense.
Gods and Devils never were.
Heaven is here, and Hell...
Hell is where you aren't.
Fire upon my skin,
I burn for your gaze upon me.
Benediction.

This one certainly deserves a response and to be dragged back up to the top. This poem says much more than the mere words on the screen. It is intensly deep and thought provoking.

An achingly lovely poem.
