Don't lay on me this question
I will not avow this adoration
Much less embrace it
This is not a burden
For earthly shoulders

If I am to live this life
As I now live it
If I am to recur
Reappear innumerably
I will not name you a god
And never will I have heard
Anything more profane

If this is just a step in a cycle
mere mold stain on a pattern
Carve my heart out
And release this fever
For I know not a moment of me
In which I beg to reappear

Hearken, child
For heaviness is what gives you meaning
Nourishing your purpose
It connects you to the moment
Lest you take leave of this earthly body
And soar among the lustre of heavens

Don't lay on me this question
This is a burden of the heaviest weight
I will not embrace it
This is not a burden for earthly shoulders
