My Need of You

Calling am I to you
Timeless and undefinable
Rarely felt soothing presence
Endlessly awaiting my need of you 

Let me please summon at once
All that may be virtuous in me
Secretly dispersed within 
Multiple layers of Being
And with it the wit and thrive
Such task demands

Not afraid am I to admit
No one beyond the deepest depth
Is indispensable except for you
Given the threads pulling life
Are not only scarcely visible
But are unimaginably long

I trust in you to help me confront 
This heart already deeply carved 
With a pernicious capricious resistance
To permanently feel what is right
For doomed will I be
Letting this love for appearances
Keep guiding me day and night
