Unveiling

Unveiling

when my words sculpt you into a hero
worship and adore you
and the pedestal isn’t high enough
don’t crush me
you will never find another

… in this life
nor the next…

i kiss your every footstep
quickly
before the sand erases it
won’t you turn around and glance at me?

… if you ask me
i may unveil for you…

even He does not have that privilege
for they ask me to hide myself
whenever i invoke His name

  1. Greetings,
    Thank you for this.
    This poem evokes for me an odd sense of the pain of separation from our beloved.
    All good wishes,
    robert
