lingering

by Gel Nunez

shifting my minds eye to see the truth
of myself and the essence of God
he is here but I’ve lost my cosmic dance
my own constellation

tethered through the broken songs of my youth
the truth of jesus wanting me to be a sunbeam

I sift deep inside
the caverness of the pain
to find the duality of this love
the complacency bellowing me towards the light
bathing me in the knowledge
that this truth lies in all of us
–that we may never find
