For the Love of Melancholia
For the love of Melancholia
I bow down before you
Lay gifts at your altar
You are life's spirit moving
Through my fingertips and tears
For the love of Inadequacy
Filling my face with soft shades
Your under-appreciated hues
Add nuance to my rainbow
Revealing beauty in disguise
For the love of Guilt
Master of transformation
Guide me to what's gone awry
Show me how to atone with myself
With those I have damaged
For the love of Anger
Burn through me with fervor
For what I never deserved
Or deserved and never got
Channel my wounds into wisdom
For the love of Shame
Transporting life's heaviest cargo
Teach me to love the unlovable
Remind me at my absolute worst
I am pure cosmic energy

Tis been a long time since I loved shame.
