Ave

Gazing outside

Tattered buildings

Makeshift gardens amongst the concrete

Sun streaming through the window

I hope this sun touches all below

Life is but a whirl

Of memories, of sights

Feet hitting the pavement

Supporting the physicality

Where all that’s wanting to release

Is love expressed

Bottled within this body

Sometimes I feel like I’m dying

Each day, waiting, hoping and dreaming

For a time where it will be all better

Wanting to stretch my arms

And envelop all goodness in the world

Because what is trapped within

Has hardly a chance to be embraced

I think too much of loving

When I should be loving as if I was breathing

Because all I want to be

Is loved divinely, in return

Is God the only one that will be able

To love me, in all my imperfections

In my vunerabilities

In my cowardice?

From living fully, wanting incessantly

That no single person can bear to give

Will my search ever be complete?
