wrap your warm
benevolent
loving
and caring arms
all around me
and whisper to my ears
that you've always heard
all my prayers and pleas
renew your covenant
right now
that you'll forever
be with me
for i've forever been faithful to you
then help me
tell the whole world
that you've
since been the one
i have
always
believed
you are.
let me show them
that you are not
the mess
of ***
christened
in crack
and pina colada
that they now
think you are
let me make them see
that you are not
just a sad sack
of fairy tales
white washed
painted pretty
to hide your scars.
let me
let them
understand
that under the husk
of that hopeless mirth
of the man they see
when they see you today
lies the man
that i see
whenever
i close my eyes.
use me to open their's
use me to have them know
that you exist.
please.
i know you are
out there
somewhere.
the man that i
used to know.
i believe
you haven't forgotten...
i believe
you haven't changed.
my heart burns
to be the sacrifice
that invites forth
your presence.
i long for you
to make known
your being
once again.
fashion your altar
from the tongue in my mouth
i shall never cease
to sing of memoirs
for you.
use my bones
make them the foundation
upon which
you grace with your miracles
and with all
the living skin
of my flesh
carve your memory
of which no one
will ever forget.
