She sighs , she seeks

from a time unknown
one we'll never seek 
the peace they hold
didn't come at ease 

the wind, the sun;
against pillowy cheeks 

so much to comprehend, 
beyond this celestial being

sigh, she rests, 
after several weeks 

hopes to find herself, 
amongst misty dreams 

it's here we realise 
our true place 
and how small we really seem 

and in that moment 
with the diamonds above her head 
and the grain beneath her feet 

she forgives herself
for the wait, 
and falls to her knees
