Revelation of the Mystery*

The incessant need to know – 
know all the answers,
know what they think 
of me,
know what I’ll be,
know all I cannot see – 
that incessant need
gnawing incessantly
at the corners of my mind,
is silenced
each time 
I gaze into the depths of His eyes – 
there 
where there is nothing to know 
other 
than
the
deep 
Mystery 
of His Spirit 
in mine.
