In the Darkness of the Night

Against the black, black

sky of deepest night,

 

untrammeled by the rays

of city life.

 

I hold on high before the

moon so full,

 

the silence of my one

true soul.

 

Take it master and ruler

of my path,

 

keep it hidden from my

eyes.

 

Make it the one true

thing I always crave,

 

And keep it ever hidden

til my dying breaths and days.

 

Just out of reach and yet

owned by another, I will

 

lean in to finding this jewel

with all I am.

 

For the journey and the

trek we all forget that we are on

 

is all that we are here to uncover

and reveal.

 

And, in moving on the crust

of this simple little orb

 

we discover that being lost

is never real and not attained.

 

For we are always where we

are and headed on to where we were

for all time and in all motion

ever being still the same.

 

And the journey is just that;

the destination is the same

 

it is the wandering that we

do to restore what has always been.

 

Selah.
