I know the hollows
of your heart
the whispers whine
of voice not there--
I take your hand
and kiss your palm
stigmata gone--
no wound to wear.

I know the quiver
of your eyes
when you are weeping
out of time
I know your heart beats
time with mine
I know you cry
in search of rhyme--
I know you.
You are everywhere...
I know you,
and I feel you there.

Rest you, now.
I'll watch. You sleep.
Rest you, now.
I will dream deep...
Rest you, I
will keep you safe.
Caress you,
love you, watch you wake.

Is this about some person that we all know, or more of a personal thing going on?  I get a Son of God thing going a little bit with the first stanza, but I always need clarification before I decide that I am right.  Unless, of course, we decide that I am God and therefore always right...but in that case this poem would be about my son.  And since I don't have any sons, we'll just imagine that I am not God.  *grins*  I should shut up about that before I get someone mad at me.
Anyways, I like what you wrote, it was very thought provoking for me.  Thankyou for that.
