Shiva-by Devi Nina Bingham

I can't do this alone, I need your hand

I am trying to hold onto you.

Lost for days, then I see land

been sailing without a crew.


It's easy to be adrift at sea

so far from shore, reel me in.

Daily I've prayed on bended knee.

Where have you been?


In the stormy night you hear my cry

I've never had to plead.

But speak up, don't be shy

before I bleed.


You've always known who you are,

the darkness is all for me.

Promise me a morning star

that I can see.


You've created this game to play

then send us back to "Go."

We are just globs of clay

you run the show.


I beg you, please reign me in

I've drifted enough.

My courage is worn thin

it's been rough.


You'll give it all if I will

those are the rules of the game.

You handle me with such skill

I can't say the same.


Let's meet again when I'm at my best

my Hindu superhero.

Smile, I passed the test.

Shiva, my fiery fellow.
