Affirmation

 

(A lone voice whispers)


Will you do more to avoid an eternally broken heart?


Do you need a proclamation of truth, which one can pursue, to define your life?


Well, if so,
Here's one whispered in a deep dream

Just for you


In the end
To have loved true

Purely and transformationally

With kindness and compassion


When you stand before the God of your religion

Before you transcend


You'll be judged worthy, and your happiness will extend, beyond that final meeting

With whom, or whatever you follow, at your world's end


For good souls like you,
if you do, are never condemned
