An Indomitable Grace

I could feel you last night,
so close were your words,
your soul.
You whispered kindness
in my sleeping ears.
You held me, wooed me,
and I wondered
what game we were playing,
now that we’re gone
from each others’ intimacy.
But thousands of miles away,
you are as much a ghost,
as the specter of my dream.
And you do not know my God.
