My Heart's Throne

as I watched

the sun dim

and cast

my world

into darkness

I began to walk

within the night

my reality

had become

looking towards 

the blacken heavens

wondering

 

who could I turn to

to guide me

when I fell apart

 

who could I trust

to give me strength

when I lost

all my hope

 

who could I justify

fully leaning on

with my knees

already buckling

under my own weight

 

who existed with enough heart

to love me

for my intrinsic worth

and that worth alone

who could lean on

who had so much strength

he could lift me up

into the sky

 

he was

the piece

of my soul

that was kind

that was patient

that was strong

The God

deep inside me

a reflection

of the universe,

writhing within me

my only savior

the highest form

of myself

he

and only he

could deliver me

from the darkness

and lift me up

into the light

 

for I found my God

in the throne

of my heart
