compression

condensation bellows
through the crowds of my
future
with the mist of worshiping
tears
that place of a hush on the
mind
restoring this soul leakage
of a prayer language
where comfort struggles
desperately
the beginnings that follows me
through column courtyards
of my past failures forgiven…
still i suffer the configuring
consequences’…….
of a surface relationship
nominal bait with liturgy
flag stone anointed walls
of memory’s droplet voices
but you feel my heart…
like no other… would?
you know me better
than i know myself?
the ambulance moments
where tears feed me
these dark speech emotions
that do not depend on my needs
how can i comprehend this
reality???
when all i’ve every known
is loneliness unedited
and sometimes admitted…
the escapee searching
for a unique worthy path
when everyone wants
to follow someone else’s
revelation…????
but the true shepherd’s tone
in my ear is distinctive…
non manipulative
gentle but reconnecting
that resonates purity
wise but humble
the golden solid grains
of pure holy hands touching
these healthy patterns
dissolving this recovering
wound
of wordless emergence
i have formed your essence
within the seed and the egg
and have seen your every
thought
and have waited for you to
love me
without asking
i have kissed your lips with
life
and have held you in my palms
where the nail prints
still remain forever
aching for you with a
passion that will never
subside
to perceive your personal expression
articulate my name
