Ink of the void
Sultan and wraith
Be still, and press on
For we, dance on faith

The blankets of white
Oppress, but we peruse 
To faith, we shall dance
In light, just me and you

Ink of the void
Bleed night sky
Fulfill my dreams
My eyes are too shy

These blankets of time
Persistent and blue
Answering an enigma
Life’s sins so true

Ink of the void
Damned to tell the truth
Vivid memories are vast
The visions that soothe

To turmoil, we say nay
God, lift up night sky
Withering not my vision
For, life seems, to sigh

Ink of the void 
A journal for prayer
To remind me of blessings
And remember to beware

Daily blessings 
I count now, not envy
Because God gave me purpose
And strength over the enemy
