Wonder.

            Bewilderment.

                        Humbling.

                                    A spark.

Finiteness.

Betrayal.

            Fear.

                        Love.

            Courage.

                        Boldness.

            Kinship.

                        Comfort.

Fear.

            Desperation.

                                    Admiration.

Yeshua

Sudden cold.

            Shock of air.

                        An unsure, wailing scream that is His.

                                    Knowing why He is here.
