Last Sunset, First Sunrise

‘A poem’

Sweet agony seep through my fragile bones,

my flesh trembles in perplexity and fear.

Anxiety persists to cling ounce by ounce,

though I camouflage at the darkness’ rear.

Woe unto me you who is confident

for my ways had gone far His goodness.

I ate earth’s spoils which brought predicament,

I buried beyond time all thou greatness.

If Thou holiness will blow the Shofar,

am I worthy to join the angels’ league?

Yet Your mercy was more than golden bar,

that You embrace me though my sin is big.

Oh Lord let me again kiss your face

And fasten, strengthen, our covenant’s lace.
