I Wept For Her (A Kyrielle)

I Wept for Her (A Kyrielle)

She found me lost, writing my verse

First conversation unrehearsed

Pearls of wisdom we did disperse

She owns my heart, I wept for her

Her lines bring such delight, so terse 

For me displays the universe

Cosmos in miniature bursts

She owns my love, I wept for her

She took a risk, my heart did pierce

And asked could she be mine. Of course

Soul aquifers released great force

She owns my soul, I wept for her

A stone sank in my soul averse

To hearing diagnosis cursed

Wailing tears implor’d angel nurse

She owns my life, I wept for her

My God in heaven heard, of course

And stilled my shrieking voice, now hoarse

Restored my love’s true vital source

She owns me true, I wept for her.
