Ascension

Far away


from where I am


the distance long


I sense you 


there


your voice


it summons


I climb the rope


deep


the waters


I tread


swimming, swimming


I'm going under


pull, pull me now


intertwining


something to will


Discover

cast away

shedding off

unwanted weight

making room

for something new

burning candles,

chasing the wind

casting off doubt

constructing

"her" arrival

giant wings

grasping wings

                                                   with which to fly

holding fast to fiery light

it seems too high

 I wander

fast

dire new spring

awaits 

the task
