Faithless

Loosely persisting, softening at the tips
       it sweetly succumbs to Your relentless sovereignty.
It cascades in sorrowful sways,
       depicting my vile inequity
       no longer buried deep within.
I cry out,
       Your vacancy wearing at my tattered faith
       as I cling to the loose fabric
       hanging from my lifeless body.
And as my eyelashes wistfully shutter,
       and the pixelations play across my lids,
A light peers through where lid meets eye
       projecting Your scintillating persistence,
       gleaming amidst my haze.
