from the book Heavenly Order
Where goes this
icy dagger
But deep within
my heart,
To cut and tear with
cruel intent
And break my
soul apart?
Where can I find
a refuge
From relentless
searing pain,
When all about are
shreds of truth
I struggle with
in vain?
Where are the drops
of wisdom
To cool my
burning tears?
Perhaps I will only
find them
Through a search of
many years.
