My Savior

The earth still resonates
Thumping heartbeats, your footsteps
Immaculate birth, distilled, royal purity
The unknown child emerged from a pristine infant
A kingdom laid sleeping, yet approaching
Harbinger of redemption, salvation
I seek you, I long for you
When did you realize who you are?
When was the veil of such grace lifted from your eyes, revealing ascension?
What stirred within you, bolstering your spirit, calling upon you?
You must have known, felt that presence, uplifting
Angels surrounding you, protecting until that time
It must have taken them apart, split their souls and their hearts to leave you be
My Savior, when did you awaken?
Or were you born wide awake, biding your time, the exaction of execution
To light that candle, that fervid fire that will never die
With pangs, aching hollow breast
I reach for you with tainted hands
Sin streams down from my eyes
As the old man falls away
To reveal a new
Everything has a reason and both are you
