the answer

it wasn't exactly as if i were waiting for it,
it just showed up at an opportune moment.
a moment of weakness, or perhaps vulnerability.
a moment when my soul must have been crying out,
unheard even to me, hidden behind the sound proof barrier.

there it was, golden and shining, powerful yet meek, known yet unknown,
everything and nothing, all at the same time.
i suddenly found myself enveloped, surrounded,
the sound proof barrier instantly gone,
the sounds of angels resounding across the universe.
