Eclipse



 
If you could see
 
the best of me
 
it would be
 
upon my knee
 
in humility
 
before the thrice-holy
 
who eclipsed my heart
 
with hope
 
apart
 
from the present pain
 
of this deadening day
 
in which I have no say
 
as to what is right or wrong
 
in a song
 
gone horribly off key,
 
dissonant and dark,
 
except for the spark
 
that longs to embark,
 
arms cast wide,
 
deep into the divine
 
who once was mine
 
when it was sublime
 
to be
 
His/or Hers.
 
Then and nevermore.
 
Amen.
