Never Alone

In me, outside me, around me
through me
the Divine exists
to rule me

I’m never alone
the King is on the throne
to rule me

Life’s little moments of
victory and defeat
Leave me with thoughts
of only the feat
as I have succeeded
as I have failed
as I have learned
destiny’s tale

The heart murmurs near
the thoughts I hold dear
I’m never alone
You are here
You sharpen my skills
You brighten my mind
You delight my senses
everything is Divine
and I see You in everything I doz
You are the fuel
You are the fire
You are the energy
that drives me much higher
beyond the dawn
of Light

I’m never alone,
You are in me
for eternity
guiding me through
leading me true,
to essence sublime
and my divinity
How could it be
You without me
in this place
in all its waste

Never alone
always with You
senses in bliss
just enjoying this.
