I am scared
To look into the eyes of the Gods.
Their reddened lips that curl,
Every drop down their brow of sweat,
And the breath to come from their holy mouths.
I fear the weight
Of knowing what You sound like,
Of knowing how You look at me,
As I pray and kneel and drown
In You.
I cry tears of wine and milk
Every time I feel Your touch,
And I know not what will fall from my cheeks
When I finally see You smile.
And yet, You still urge me
To see You and see Your face,
The madness and the sanity,
The divinity that pours from your feet;
And how easy it is to get lost
In a sea of honey and careful abyssal dreams.
