Rollercoaster ride --
The thrilling chasms,
Drilling their twists & turns
Within my soul
Of fire;
My burning desire
For your full devotion.
Can you sail the oceans
Of my salt-saturated fears?
These depths in which I've drowned, &
Sank beyond dark despair
For too many long years.
Can you turn my world around
So that I'm not hanging on
To the edge by a fractured fingertip of hope?
These severe angles of lost light
Revealing the lost time that I've denied.
Can you calm the tsunamis
Of my most overwhelming pain?
These needs most met
If you were to tame a sane shade of grey
Bringing about a torrid end
To the black & white days.
Can you deliver to me
The peace of a baby's sleep
Beneath her mother's powdery breast so sweet
Where nothing else but love matters
Such security & warmth;
I long for that kind of rest.
More than the stone cast past
The fossilised promises
The hope still etched deep in my hollowed memory space
I need for you to change my hour
Now & forever more
Discover my needy land of you
Come dock your war-torn, dream-laden ship
At my much anticipated shore
