Mysterious shadow from my wall
A portrait of divinity to me
Across my unkempt bed you seem to crawl
As 'holy' as anything else I see
A beautiful dark semicircle cast
By nothing human eyes can comprehend
A perfection I feel is unsurpassed
Causing once 'normal' beliefs to suspend
Placing all of true faith within your grace
While you yet exist you are my embrace
A portrait of divinity to me
Across my unkempt bed you seem to crawl
As 'holy' as anything else I see
A beautiful dark semicircle cast
By nothing human eyes can comprehend
A perfection I feel is unsurpassed
Causing once 'normal' beliefs to suspend
Placing all of true faith within your grace
While you yet exist you are my embrace
Author notes
PROMPT:
DEFINE DIVINE! Tell me what it means to you for something to be divine. I want a deep explanation though, don't just tell me that your chosen God (or Goddess) is divine, tell me WHY he/she is divine.
