"Closer"
There is a light
hidden in the heart of man
deeply embedded it summons ignition
each day the portal opens further
something beckons
come closer
come closer
the door widens
like the mouth of the whale
in your dreams you are Jonah
inside your vessel waits the one
who walks on water
the heart is a burning flame
lighting minds like wicks
rapturous disbelief
3 days, 3 nights
before closure
there seated steadfast
marking your time
all commanding
beckons the closer
believing your disbelief
the Sun reflects
in your eyes
come closer
come closer
(LadyLabyrinth / 2021)
