prayer

i think,

i have prayed 

only to love you,

will ever conspire 

to be with you, 

even without you,

my eyes recognize 

only shadows of you,

orphaned, wanting to 

be fostered by you,

under the new or 

blue or full moon,

as i prayed for you.

i think 

i have prayed 

only to fall for you,

will ever dive in

energies of you,

if i get a piece 

or full body of you,

my eyes recognize 

only two sinless 

survivors to be 

cradled by the silence 

carved by me and you,

as i prayed for you.

i think,

i have prayed 

only desire for you,

will ever choose 

to sublet my roof,

be colonized by you,

my eyes recognize 

only the atomicity 

of my life and you, 

to begin again with you,

drowned in floods 

still sanctifying you,

as i prayed for you.

yes i prayed right 

for you, to worship you.
