Content my heart

Content my heart
May it ever be
Let not my
Stealing eyes
Wander to
Their own
Demise

The world sits
In pretty lies
Yet shallow
Is their
Silken
Disguise

So look up
And onward
To that which
Lies but just
Ahead

Lift thy gaze
To that which
Is worthy of
Thy praise

For glory awaits
Beyond passing shadows
And foggy eyes
Soon shall see
The light
Beyond
The Mystery

-Joshua Lee Foist
