Broken wings
Cause my unrest
Ever lower
Forever falling
…Fearfully
Resting upon Infinite Ocean
Drifting upon the waves
In the darkness
The tides carry me
…Aimlessly
Each day a stagnant shifting
Watching tides wash ashore
No storm in these waters
So quiet their turning stale
…Agony
Though water abound
My thirst unquenched
I am restless
I am sinking
…Slowly
He is the sun
Vibrant and hot…forbidden
Rays caressing each crest
Drawing his light
…Upon Me
As he fades into the dark
The night brings cold
Darkness replaces his warmth
Thoughts of his heat
…Ecstasy
The ache boils over me
Brings new life to these wings
The attention gives new meaning
…To each day
Here
Where I slowly stir the water
And every day is the same
Now
I am warm, I am wet
Didn’t know it could be
..this way
Thrashing about,
The waters swell
Thick with current
I feel my Self moving
Stirring about
Boiling
“I am yours.”
…I say
Wings spread eagle
And when he rises
His rays like fire
I am drawn into him
…Willingly
The attention keeps me
Hanging on each day
Each wound cauterized
Each ember authorized
I cling to him
…feebly
Forbidden
Fire against Water
Against Fire
Evaporate … condensate
Into tears
…repeatedly
Ascertain my wings are singed
Playing with fire, burned by sin
Become still and I let go
and I Am
Set Free…

Wow. I love your poetry. Though I've been a member of the group for some time, I just "discovered" your blog. You are an old, beautiful soul, Acuminous. The world is a nicer place because you are here. Keep being you.
