THE CLOSET MYSTIC

let me be a reminder

of a world forgotten

of a time before the Fall

still fused with the Garden

~

A world of perfect harmony,

and never-ending Bliss,

all beings as one heart,

all holding true love’s kiss —

in this world without wrongs,

we need no forgiveness —

to the unending miracle

all creatures bear witness —

~

so let us elope

for all of our days

come to the meadow

be fearless and play

~

know this is the world

from which I do hail

and this one right here

when compared does pale

but its memory

simply will not fade

and for all the world

I’d never ever trade
