prayer

[cacian]

the gift of me
is for you to see
and the gift of them
is for us to be

we are what we say
but
to express what we may not
is a gift
with the meaning of forthwith
it is the literature of the solstice
to exist depends on this

to look the best
to be the first is secondary
it is not sanctuary

to project the self
with a true depth
to exhibit internal edits the outside can inhabit
is a style that forever debits
life to become a habit

enough told
and said be hold
be all
till forever sold
but deny not who we are for gold

"Deny not who we are for gold", a good maxim, cacian!

Beautifully written. Very nice indeed. :)

I especially liked the unusual way you expressed yourself about your gift to others and the advice in the very last line.
