English: A candle flame. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
I have travelled so far to see you
I have journeyed on light and on words
Slipped through parallel space just to find you
Flown for miles, sister here to the birds
I have struggled to gain all the answers
To the riddles you threw in my path
I have knelt like a child at your altar
I have wept even while you would laugh
I accepted your odd invitation
Crossed the barriers of space and of time
I have offered this shell I inhabit
Just a poet relinquishing rhyme
I have stood as a supplicant waiting
In these halls drenched with blood and with pain
I have floated half drunk on the ether
I returned here again and again
Still waiting the moment to see you
Bid you welcome my much revered host
Yet like shadows you only will offer
But a fraction of what I crave most
