My Star, My Shield I Will Keep

my star my shield I will keep

your shining
in uncreated sky

enduring - before and after

at a distance far
from all torment

I will sing entirely silver
around you

gathering the shattered nebulae
of your heart rending

my heart, my heart rending yours

like far-flung flowers of
exponential light

intended and intended by God
