~Sanctity of Tears~
~Sanctity of Tears~
Have you been ordained by God,
…the creator?
If not I’ll talk to you… later.
Have you swam in the holiness,
The sanctity,
The loneliness,
…of my tears?
Have you cared,
To dip into the enlightenment there?
Coming from spiritual wells,
…of soul.
No, this baptismal,
Has been my own.
Have you ridden my madness,
Or,
Stepped into the darkness of my sadness,
And left a footprint there?
I do not seek forgiveness,
Any given,
Needn’t be begged.
I do not seek salvation,
Well…perhaps yours,
Not mine.
Therein lies the irony of time.
And time,
Has made me as I am today.
And that,
Has been my sacrifice,
My price to pay.
I seek acceptance,
Not yours,
My own.
Yes, my own.
As I stand solitare.
Alone.
Swimming in the sanctity,
Neck deep in my reality,
Of my tears,
…alone.
