my golden calf

i feel my knees ache
turning red from
worshipping You.

You were the one
that brought me out of
the darkness and into this light

i worship You.

i love You in ways
others don’t understand

without You
i am nothing
but empty

You give
You take

You put all the stars in
my sky and
built me from
nothing

Then I burned you
for you were made
of the gold of the
world.
