Meditation

Wet grass licks at my feet
Green tongues of flame
I wish for the earth to envelop me
Sinking, without a sound
Drowning on dry land
Every clod of beetle-dark soil a silent goodbye 
To what I’m not sure ever existed
Reborn into root and rain

Wait

I want to break the world
I want to watch as beauty is shattered
 
Before you left
You spoke of triumph and of glory

The light I cannot comprehend
Leaves with you

In vanity I wished to conquer
The beauty you exemplified

To grasp it, to take hold
Of that which I can only envy 

And now I am drowning in the goodness you left me
The kindness that you guided me with

I see your face in the strangers on the street 
I heard your voice in every earnest word 

I keep waiting for the moment when I will metamorphose 
And grow a shade closer to your gold.
