Gaia's Reply
Stumbling upon a clearing
 hearing a weightless Zephyr,
 it holds a whisper that urges
 that what lies here
 shall silence my dirges
 
 In front of me I see
 an obscene Gesture
 of Gaia's bare face
 left behind by a jigsaw
 that radiates with light
 upon this passing of night
 
 I try to illuminate,
 mix together the Mystery
 until I must rest my mind's eye
 embrace a pensive sigh
 and acknowledge I'll never fulfill
 what will unravel Her Riddle
 
 So I lay defeated 
 and sink with a faded plea;
 
 "Alas, I'm no Atlas
 but I'll carry You
 and all Your burdens too"
 
 Awaiting a pitied reply
 in this surfaced abyss
 I finally feel the words
 She could never say
 
 "You may quantify Life;
 convolute Me with freckles,
 you may scar Me with pleasures
 of hopeless endeavors
 
 but if you wish
 for no more than Me
 
 you need not martyr
 and leave me alone;
 you need not solve
 My 'enigmatic puzzle'
 
 you need no more
 than to be a Piece
 and join
 My Sky Blue Peace"
