A heart like David

Sitting in silence

No light inside the room

but your shine cracks through the door as I view my soul in clarity as I listen to you whole

unfold the mysteries of your oceanic heart

as the cosmos parts in the sky

the gold of your truth brings warmth to the cold and dark

wisdom comes within solitude from the rest of the earth

with only you to talk to

with only you to bind my spirit to

I can hear your whisper

I see your stairway

I will climb and climb to the peak

and at zenith your eyes shall look upon me

as your determined child

to not fade as the flower of flesh

but to rise as the vessel of your breath
