Saturn

G-d, I am Saturn
The ties of its ring enraging
it's fire in its soul
slowly aging

I am the stars surrouding it
the light in the darkest sky
never remembering
how to cry

I am so many more
than the cherries on top
when the knife inside my heart
goes chop chop chop

G-d I am Saturn
enveloped in a hug
challenge and evil
faced in joy and shrug
