Come closer, God whispered to me.

Come closer, God whispered to me.
Even in my ignorance I heard.
Even in the vertigo of my comedy.
Even in the darkness I felt the word.
Come closer, God whispered to me.

As though the postman might unexpectedly
deliver a letter-- a lost love writing to me.
One never completely forgotten.   And I came  to see
someone precious is waiting invisibly.
Come closer, God whispered to me.
