One

Inescapably deduced through an expression of love,

one's song, one's dream, one's whisper.
Proven, a name for the world's neglect,
nay a purpose in life much crisper.

Consuming; a feeling to fill you up,

like roots digging into your skin,
like a fire, the wind, like the sea and the waves,

swelling up, a scorching within.

An answer to prayer so fervently offered,

replete, with joy at it's sway.
Vacant of thee for as long as time's passed,

so abstruse, yet forever allay.
