To hold my hands through storms
You saw off some thorns.
Then let the star be.
You diluted the majesty
that flows from her lips.

There is spiritual refuge, where the world around
Refused my requests for respite.

I beg to excuse myself, to the bathroom, to check my phone.

How To Be Loved

Am I not doted on,
Wanted?
Always.
