Awaken

Awaken.

Awaken me, dear Lord, lift my self-woven veil.
Release me from the projections of my mind.
Lift me up 
Open the petals of my soul to your light.
Give me faith and let me listen to the echoes of your wisdom, 
All the way to the sweetest corners of the earth.
Reveal the faith that allows me a thousand understandings,
An eternal insight.
Let me not question your will.
Let truth be my guide, 
My gateway to your heaven.
Inside I hear you.
I begin to decipher the intricacy of your math,
A formula, to show me I am you and you are me.
Awaken me my dear Lord and unfold my destiny.

I do not have formal training in poetry but am planning on taking classes. Any thoughts or feedback to help me grow most welcome! I wrote this as I feel that I'm on a spiritual journey to an awakening.
