Eclipsing Shadows

gray0328

 

I see the beauty in all the parts

of you the world rejects: the 

jagged edges and quiet storms.

You carry so much weight, a

 

softened iron heart trembling

with faithless prayers. I've counted

the scars hiding under your skin,

traced them like maps, trying to

 

love you in pieces, when really,

you are a cosmos. If I get lost

in this darkness, will you jump

in after me? I'd catch fireflies

 

for you, ignite our shared night.

We are both past and present,

interwoven threads in a vast

and mysterious weave, unreadable.

    A great poem of unity in all its forms. Nicely written with some unique views of how unity can be seen.
