I Pray For Darkness...

i pray for darkness... wrapping splintered lights in perfected stillness... stillness that heals without questioning why or who! stillness that sings, with every pulse of blood through bodies worn... stillness that redeems, bringing the searcher to his final destination... stillness that removes, the cross, , the crown of thorns, lays down the shield of honor... stillness that fills, the empty cup, the box forgotten, bringing the lover to the lips of longing... spilling his passion on the fertile earth! i pray for darkness, removing all graven images, the power of the formless to form again and again... i pray for darkness, the moonlit touch forbidden, the lover's cry, the wolfen howl, the mystic taste of that which cannot be seen... but felt!
