Comfort

Look into the night sky
What do you see?
I see stars
Glowing dimly
I flew up into the sky
Looking for the brighter regions
Where stars shine brighter than anywhere seen on solid earth
The higher I flew
More stars I see
Like a blanket full of holes
Covering the white sky
I felt the resonance of earth’s heartbeat
I heard the voice from the great beyond
And I saw no one
But only myself
Up in the sky
Standing all by myself
The stars no longer shine
The resonance…
The voice…
Everything…
Gone.


Looking up upon
I ask God
When will you guide me back to your kingdom?
When will you bring me back into your arms?
I seek nothing now
But to stay comfort in your hands…
