Glory

On the threshold between fear and transcendence

By Vanta LuminaPublished 8 months ago 1 min read

I’ve been pacing past the gates of glory far too many days.

I hear her call me to her side - she calls me out by name.

What lies beyond, it beckons me, and yet I still remain.

I know this is the only path - how I long to feel her grace.

At once the day has come to meet my suitor face to face.

I draw apart those heavy doors and stare into her space.

The wind, it draws me in and I, I know what I must do.

I step into that infinite void and I let it pull me through.

Glory in the chaos and I’ll never be the same.

Glory through the love, the bliss, the dying and the pain.

Glory, here you meet me and remove all my remorse.

Glory, I give myself to you, my beloved, evermore.
