The sacred feeling the universe in your eyesThe feeling of self a hazeBut a boundless connection to infinityIt comes, it lifts, then fades away,A fall that stretches, in disarrayTheories of life ripped awayAll instincts devoid of creativityThe sacred feelingthe moon in my eyes From my room’s windowI feel the celestial grace, a momentI carry out…

A blackbird soars, circling my tragedyAmorphous thoughts form in my mindI dare not brave its end Nor even stand amidst its trance to not be lost againTo be lost is to no longer be groundedIt is not flying in the infinite skyIt is a hopeless free fall for a hopeful divine interventionIt is a leap…
