GOD’S POEM

Unable to put pen to paper

I sat in a silent room

Surrounded by the light of scented candles

Incense infused air

I closed my eyes and looked up to the space above

Praying for inspiration

Yearning for some sort, any sort of assistance

And just as I was beginning to doubt

Myself

A small voice spoke through the silence

 

 

You are God’s poem

He wrote you while intoxicated

By the beauty of life

As he sipped from a cracked

Goblet, he scribbled line after misconstrued line

Inspired by his lyrically architectural mind

He built you up

Word by word

Limb for limb

You were written with God’s

Mythical quill dipped in bloody ink

 

You are God’s poem

And your worth is determined

By the fact that you were written by him

He wrote you while he dreamt

Of beauty

While he foresaw joy and love

He wrote in the absence of fear and confusion

In the absence of tears

 

You are God’s poem

And it is not blasphemous to think that

A greater blasphemy

Would be denying Him as your author

 

You are God’s poem

Written in the presence of love

True love

True love that flourishes in honesty

And you are that poem

That poem

Written on that day

Because you were and still are

Worthy enough to be written by God’s hand

 

The incense died out

And the wax melted

But the truth remained

I am God’s poem

And that

Is an honour that you too

Should claim.
