Redeemed

His betrayal divulged

Naked, exposed,

Enraged by his misbehaving

Words of clemency die on my tongue.

Deceived, I no longer seek

Shelter in saccharine whispers.

Your soft breath and sighs

Advancing, receding,

Endowed with the gift of believing

Embed faith into my icy heart.

Cherished, I no longer wander

Forsaken in treacherous visions.

My slumbering soul

Awakened, released,

Washed by a flood of revealing

Devotion dwells in your eyes.

Changed, I no longer chase a

Life only lived in my dreams.
