Shattered

By Ashrei (Ima Sari Wisenthal)

Shattered AI Art by Ashrei Ima Sari

All I wish for is to close my eyes,

into Your shadow I seek to dive,

sounds of Psalms dyeing pinker ties,

from there my help will come, I can't deny,

all I contain is a wish You will cure,

broken edges You are bound to,

disintegrated, I keep falling in Your wake,

will I be salvaged before it is too late?

My life shattered on a union's tear,

pull away yet I’m still standing right there.

All I wish for is to hide every one of my fears,

Shiver in silence to not be revealed,

but You see me, how You know me,

still revere me, You console me,

I am all but what remains,

alive Yet dead, without a name,

You will find what is left of me - a granulated flame,

shattered, broken, crumbled by Your aim,

always hoping to be here - now I can,

each day, every moment, be awakened with Your gaze.

Will You lead me, striding by Your side?

For I was shattered by Your power,

will You not become my guide?
