Transcendence
by Dawn L Mullan

Thursday, August 20, 2009
Rated "PG" by the Author.

 

I have this little place in me

that will always be alone.

No matter the circumstances

-the outside world,

or anything given to me-

it will forever be there.

 

It’s that part of me you can never touch.

Never be healed. Never feel redeemed.

 

A place so isolated from the rest of my life,

it keeps me hungry, destitute-

it’s a fragment that lacks belief.

 

Don’t try to heal me, or know this place;

this longing need keeps silent.

 

Without this solitary eclipse that creeps into my life,

I could never find any kind of peace.

 

This curse cuts me deep.

Penetrates my soul.

Reveals me. Liberates me.

 

The one place that keeps me from being whole

-is the one place you cannot reach.

Without this lone embrace,

my life, your love would be meaningless.

We all need our space in which to crawl and let life waltz by as we relax.
