Holy Water

To blow you

away, like dandelions

or up

like red balloons
Candidly, I profess

to cast upon you, the nightly blaze of my flair

to fan a flame at your unchaste desire.
Cage my heart shut

behind our rising tower of affairs
To take to kneeling at your service
where every inch of you

I worship.


Bear me sacred as your saint,

Evening falls, the moonlight faint

Unclench your fingers, 

for I am

the answer to your prayers.

One sweet caress,

and you shall be blessed
cross my heart
you shall never rest
'til the scripture of my love is finished 

with you

my hymns swell your temple and unwind you

loose.

 
Your chamber angel, 

unbounded of a honey-tinted halo,

or radiant silver wings
yet a gift I possess, of greater brilliance
of a revelation, purer than a sinner
for deep you will swim

in holy water.
 

Sprinkle your holy water, 

every last drop of mercy

bestowed upon me,
release yourself in grace
when I beg to be saved.
Your name, I will shout
in the most highest praise

when deep we swim together

in holy water.
