The small
Quiet voice
Asked me to write
Of the highest of callings.
That I should turn my gaze towards the gods.
That I should speak of grandeur, greatness and glory.
I was not moved.
No words came,
Other than these few;
I feel nothing
But the sun upon my skin,
The dirt under my feet,
And weight of this moment
Stretching toward eternity.
This poem is from the book A Requiem For What Could Have Been: Poetry For The Broken
