Progression of Whispers

Misplacing ancient beliefs

Anyway, lost to sacrificial dreams

There was fire in renewed vows and hopes

In the lateness of demons

The revered cries of an existence

Navigating a logistical chaos to a return to intimacy

Tried in the court of indecision

We adopted relative nakedness

Believed in the progression of whispers

Feared latent retribution

And in the end caught gazing at obscurity

Relying on a miracle

And prayers once uttered every other century

And a skeptical observance of treaties

That rarely apply

Vision Of One

You appeared in a mesmerizing flash of kindness and compassion
Fighting staunchly for survival from physical turmoil and fear
Your beautiful spirit and drive obviously the brightest star
In a universe filled with immortal fire
A presence not previously known in the history of time
Nor likely to be recognized again
Your distant soul felt in tidal waves of warmth and humility
Possessing overflowing grace when facing extreme circumstances
Becoming everything
Conquering all obstacles
A revelation to skeptical eyes
It didn't seem possible that you existed
