standing at the bottom
of a crystal palace staircase

toes barely over the edge

so inviting, you might even die
to get inside

but you haven't acquired the nerve

so sacred a place
one could only disgrace
but the will
will overpower

and the cost of a tarry
is to wait forevermore
for the chance

and be devoured.

What was it that caused physicality to become out of endless void and inky blackness and are we merely a bi-product of its residual harmonic vibration's resilience or do we embody the nature of its kinetic supremacy?  Is intellectual sentience actually the catalyst for the evolution of God or are we merely ephemeral splendor?
Opaque opulence!!
In a stable in roman occupied Palestine

Came the gift of love to the world

Lord Jesus Christ our true king and

Peace he whispered hope he gave

Through the storm he helps us brave



Gentle hands a humble heart

We love Lord Jesus Christ and his

Guiding soul he plays his part

And deep in our hearts his spirit stays

Shining through our darkest days

We love you Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord Jesus Christ
I sorrow for your sorrow—
my hands cannot reach you,
my words cannot fix it.
I cannot shield you,
or chase the dark away.

I sorrow for your sorrow.
I break when you break—
but I am not beside you.
I can’t rescue the day.
I can’t say I’m sorry
in a language you’d understand.

Still—
I sorrow for your sorrow.
And in the stillness of my world,
I make space for your grief.

In my heart,
in my spirit,
I hang a lantern.
I shine what light I can
from across the miles—
and I sorrow with you,
until the sorrow can end.
I once was so sad
I came here and found a community
People like me
Restless and needing understanding
Lovely people
My account was hacked and I lost everything
I didn’t even get to say goodbye
Or even copy my poetry
The seen and the hidden
I have missed my friends so much
If anyone remembers me
Please let me know
The hugs will be endless
I have suffered the loss of you all
