Prayer

It's time for
you 
to kneel down before
me in worship

There is
nothing I care
more
about than your
devotion, while
the sound of you breathing
nails my soul to my
body

The honor of being
in your arms
undeserving of your
reverence hypnotizes
me prompting
to beg for
the unthinkable

It's time for
you 
to kneel down before
me in worship
