Sometimes

sometimes i see her
the god of my dreams
a kindness that
i’ve never known

sometimes i feel her
joy and desire
for something
beyond senses
alone

i know where
she comes from,
deep in my heart
from a crevice that’s
never quite full

it’s empty
and aching
this hole in my heart
that’s feeling the goddess’s
pull

i hope to find her
deep down
inside
if i can just
hold on
until

she turns and she sees me,
and holds me so close,
and i feel
her comfort
and thrill

it’s aesthetics
and beauty
bound
to infinite joy
that makes my heart
yearn
for the stars

for when she sees me
and holds me,
so close
and kisses my
infinite scars

and when i accept it,
when i let
her love in,
she humbles me
down
to my knees

my lady of music
my lady of starlight
true, alive,
and free
