i was an ion-
until You found me:

now i am an eon-

not confined
to chemistry.

instead my tongue
speaks alchemy
as a reaction
to Your Charge.

i am positive electricity-
where physics speaks
to energy:
because my potential
to love [You] is greater
than time can measure.

you are Master.
Mover.
Maker of particles
into pleasantries.
You shift atoms
that push time
into submission

You have shaken
my position-
my time and my place
from merely ionic
to where eons
speak to ears
to spin centuries
into one destiny.
