The Key

by Lucy - Libra


As god looks,
   out from
     her podium
  in my soul,
    she notes
 the warmth
    flowing freely
  through my limbs.
She watches
     my thoughts
 as if on a movie screen
   viewing mismatched
     ideas and
  unending scenes
    all with one dominant theme-
You.
   I dress you,
      undress you,
  creating billions of
    occasions.
 God smiles to herself
     and looks down
 at a platinum key
  in her hand.
   She delicately
  removed it
     from the lock
 containing the
    most sacred
 of venues-
     my heart.
 She knows it has
   been permanently sealed
  by fate with
    your name carved
     on its beating walls.
  I was never sure
      god was with me.
Now I comprehend
        her residence.
  I feel the heat from
    a light inside of me
 and I know.
   The path to her was
 locked doors
        and brick walls.
  My love for you
    was a map
    to my very own faith.
  God is my soul.
    You are my heart.
      The two are one
  in my universe.

Reason for writing:

    
Love proved to me that a spirituality exists on a deeper level that cannot be reached by sitting in a church or a temple.
