An Odyssey of

HEALING

Shards of my essence dissolve

in the nocturnal hush,

like tears from a forsaken sky,

where stars 

collapse

and I surrender to the

seeking the luminescence that guides me

darkness,

towards the redemption of my

Soul

where peace and serenity await,

like a gentle lover's

caress.

Old books,

by the followers of my sanctuary—

made anew

to confront the specters that

the phantoms that whisper into our nature,

haunt us

all,

the verse spoken a thousand years ago

speaks

directly to my heart,

that I am

on this odyssey of healing.

reminding me

not alone
