I Know Heaven

(Spoken)

It seems that in light of

times of victory

and blessed

positive experiences, 

we can be

swallowed up by

uselessness

and failure

in God’s eyes. 

I present the following

for consideration:

 

Bludgeoning

burning

running

crashing

colliding

tears

going deeper

into my heart’s

castle

of magical wonderment

and ache

to allow

my silently

screaming

fears

to evaporate;

to allow the sum

of my life of

triggering

festering

lies

making a chorus

of poetry

shrieking of burnt salt

alighting on my skin

with tiny

scarring fires

making me

ache

to be held

just held

as I seek one

safe

harbor

of trust

with my

Great Spirit

I know

only

as

heaven.
