Washed in the darkness
With the thick night pushing me
Clouds of unknowing
‘Cross the starry field
Mirrored in the deep blue sea
Disturbed by passion
Buffeted by winds
The ocean swells and threatens
Down, I will not go
Reaching for the truth
A life-line of certitude
A raft of reason
Watch beauty ascend
Her halo burning brightly
Slip the solar disk
Seeking out the good
Journey into mystery
Take the cup of fire
The world falls away
And I fall with it, bonded
Sleeping with the dead
Separate from God
These elusive mysteries
I have no answers
Meaningless riddles
Static, in the flow of time
Self dissolution
Your poem is hauntingly beautiful and mysterious! ✨ I have particularly liked the imagery encompassing these verses: ”The world falls away And I fall with it”
Exquisitely written!👏
