Beyond the chaos of the border
between reason and disorder
lies a world that ever beckons
to the darkness in my soul
A land of everlasting laughter
that was once and will be after
all the things we thought
we fathomed turn to dust
in granite holes
Take me far beyond the steeple
to a land of unscathed people
where no single rule or concept
dooms us all to God’s abyss
Show me love without condition
without heaven or perdition
where no act of false contrition
guarantees eternal bliss

Thank you so much for the kind words Frenia🙂
Your poetry hits so close to home for me. "where no single rule or concept
dooms us all to God’s abyss" is such a painfully beautiful sentiment. This reminds me very much of struggling with religion I was raised with.
Thank you Hannah. That means so much to me🙂
Yes, I counted! Brilliantly deep poem Coyote
So did I!
Beyond the beautifully crafted lines and structure, you have provided an picture indelibly printed on my mind. I put that up at least parallel with Lennon and Ono's Imagine.
Wow! Thanks you sooo much! You've made my day🙂
wonderful imagery
and a profoundly empowering message
thanks for sharing, dear poet
