Tripping shadows that wish to leave
for another chance
we fear their little retributions
my gaze is cold and distant
do I detect something wrong?
I think I’ve lost who I was
and the man is afraid of being
without his boy
I pray often, but sometimes
I do not believe
All that I would ask if granted
my hearts desire
is that you return my soul
I need it to move on
Nirvana is so far away
and I cannot remember how to fly
Forgive me
for the pain I brought you
sip from the Grail
anoint your brow with oil blessed
by the longing
whisper a blessing
for those of us
who have lost our angels
we await your return
in agony
“whisper a blessing/for those of us/who have lost our angels/we await your return/
in agony”
This piece is so painfully and piercingly beautiful . . .
