I call upon thee now


I shall not call thy name,
Upon my death bed.
I call upon thee now.
To quench my thirst
To fill to rim
This empty vessel.
Illuminate me.
Give me reason for being
No need to kneel upon my chamber
No need to adorn my casket with fragrant lilies.
Speak to me now.
A dark and frigid coffin,
I shall soon embrace.

  1. "...quench MY thirst"
    "...[MY] empty vessel"
    "illuminate ME"
    "Give ME..."
    "speak to ME"

    ...perhaps this sentiment could be an unspoken bi-product of a gesture offered to the intended recipient of this offering of pros?
