come to me here
your eyes wide
like the bride of morning
i have pitched my tabernacle tent
neither near nor far
on the routes of passage
where dust of travelers
fills my nostrils
and the stranger’s footfall
finds my ears.
come to me here
pour out your soul
in a wave of longing
pour
like a fountain
like a star
pledged to share
your living light
sweetly stammering – speak
do not fear
i am here
i am here
listening
i am here
