The Goddess Of Guidance I was in a daze that could baffle most scholars A hyper vortex swirled around me while I stood there silent listening to the wind It was a failure on my part that led you to me Like a baby with fangs I tainted your warm milk Remember when I used to be special? I don’t You were a nomad of nobility The messiah that brought this boy back to life Breathe with me slowly I love watching you live. Have you ever seen an old man laugh? Through the smile you forget the years You saw me in the dark hiding my shard of light from the world Showing me a love that could linger in the depths of my mind So deep It carved craters in my skull where you kissed me Your power will always be cherished Slow down the rhythm for me I used to chase memories before you found me Tangled in your aura I was a happy captive The goddess that captures never frees. I follow your path of guidance leading me to paradise A velvet nirvana for you and me I will lay right here beside you Forever. © 2018 Randle Allshouse Jr.
