Poem 5

In the darkest night

when everything rotted

Someone answered

A whisper

The Numen I used to call out

appeared as a loving father

All I expected was wrath and punishment

but love overcome all

He said in a loving peaceful breeze;

This is the last night you'll spend alone

Look me in the eyes so I know you know

I'm everywhere you want me to be.

The last night you'll spend alone,

I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go,

I'm everything you need me to be.

My heart broke, and he kept the shreds

He was there,

I remembered his promise to me;

“Never turn back,

for you are mine”
