Remain Still

There is no beauty 
except rising from 
             the ashes of 
             endless vicissitudes 
Beneficent mystics are
            not subject to this
Knocked down tumbling
              wave after wave
Humbled by the sanctity
I am face down in darkness
being flashed by 
             light from on high
Waters crystallized by
                          my emotion
A vast ocean receding
                       after the flood
This teetering on the 
                   ledge called love
Awake to all tidal pain 
I must remain still and pray
