Ascent

Still solitary and Alone 
  But glimpsed I 
        heavan's door
Took me thru Love's fierce triple flame
  walked me up the aisle
   To white force twin flame fusion
             Ascending evermore
Twined in delicious serving union
  All of earth enclosed
But this is borrowed only    
   Not my true flame twin
He is another's fate
  So he pushed me thru the 7th gate
  Now I lie crumpled on the ground
  singed in heart's furnace
  I am changed forever
                   and still Alone.

 A crippled, tattered
      almost phoenix thing
I limp to take up my saviour
  role again
   A broken ascended heart 
  takes pen and ink
 To mend and harmonise
  the things that do not rise

           St Germaine, my friend?
                  You taught me well
                           and again I seek
  the once and future king
Turn my eyes from heavan's door
   this one so close to all
            I ever saw.
