A Prayer for Sanctuary

Like the haunting chants and prayers to which I've never listened

thou shalt no longer live in chains or ever be imprisoned.

Ease my always throbbing heart

I shall no longer falter

as pupae to imagines all images must alter.

Let thy glory shine on me

disperse my obfuscation

hide thy essence in myself

I need assimilation.

Stream thyself into my soul and flood it with thy yearning

pour thy soul into my shell

erase my restless burning.

I hear voices of a stranger.

I hear voices of a stranger.

I hear voices of a stranger.

I hear voices in my head

echoing.

I hear voices of a stranger.

I hear voices of a stranger.

I hear voices of a stranger.

I hear voices in my head

echoing.
