Last Night, I Learned How to Pray

SerenWise

In the cage of my mind

Only you hold the key,

In the depths of the night

You're beholden to me -

You're the trance in my eyes

And the heat of my breath,

My shuddering spine

Petite Mort - 'little death';

It's your name on my lips

And my tongue, twisted true,

When I breathe Oh, My God!

I'm referring to you.
