ElixyrEntranced by the sweet fruits of Truth
I've held the Universe in my hand
I know all the Names of forever
And how it makes futile the planned
If I shared with you this nectar
Would it taste bitter upon your sweet tongue?
Do you prefer men's slaving Word
To the wildflowers I walk among?
And your soul speaks to mine of dark nights
Though the Moon has shined always above you
Pray, where would you or Jesus be
If your Fathers had chose not to love you?
So long I've seen no silver lining
In the clouds that obscure the light
And the blind weigh me only by karat
And tip my scale out of spite
And you blaze like the beauty of fire
Make room in your chariot to heaven
Where a jealous god awaits my ascent
To remind me that I'm not forgiven
Lips may service the path that is straight
But my tightrope is drawn by a laser
At its center, my happy thought leaves, and
With these broken legs I cannot chase her
