I’m tormented by your kindness
your honesty brings me to my knees
the unwavering tone in the sound of you voice
it causes me, inside, to weep
Your goodness radiates around you
like a beacon out in the sea
beckoning me closer with each passing day
promising relief
I’m torn apart by your purity
your lightness contrasts my dark
your brilliance breaks me down and yet,
I’m enamored by your heart
I am drawn to you so naturally
like the death-bound moth to a flame
I’d combust at the mere touch of you,
and reach out to touch once again
I long so deeply to ascend
and be with you in your light
but for now I know I must shield myself
I could be burned by something so bright
