It has struck me
to my very core,
the concept of
a life honestly itself.
Immediate desires
strike frigid shadows
that bare no weight,
have no strength.
Lust lingers warm for
two things alone,
a world without walls,
a life not so small.
Such an arresting void
is this blank sheet of vellum
on which we etch out
the sanctity of our dreams.
It will soon be so,
I can feel it in my bones
my heart now resides
in this new home…
