On My Knees (most_bay) Wk - 4 (1)

On My Knees

You bring me on my knees

With your sinless eyes

And the seraphic shine

Welcoming me home

With the crystal giggles

And the crimson rain

That take my breath away

And every ounce of me

As long as I'm alive

You bring me on my knees

With every word you utter

And every song you stutter

For they undo my heart

And every shred of hurt

As young lips quiver

They play music for my

Voracious heartstrings

That sing along no matter

You bring me on my knees

Longing for just a glimpse

Into your mystic world

Invisible paradise

A vast, inner universe

For such a being concise

You make me wish to read

Into your snow-white mind

Incantations decreed

My fondness spellbind

You bring me on my knees,

With your refreshing breeze,

Wash out my grief with ease,

My Child...
