Pierced Nk
where can i go
escape your
prying eyes ~
piercing me
what you see
all my lies
fills with more
dismay and woe
but, grace on grace, you still pursue
in spite of what you know
though i’m a lowly worm
it seems that you desire
to fill me with your fire
to carry me to term
to place me in your glow
and let me ever worship you
