saving graces
I wake
adorned with the crown of daylight
your eyes hold the luster of a child in play
the innocence of life being created and taken surrounds me and I am filled to breaking point
I spill over when the sun finishes its journey over the red and gold edges of mountains and into the embrace of the ocean.
My chest thunders and hums from all these beautiful things and I am void of longing, void of all that hurt me and filled with and emotion so vast that my eyes begin to glass over and I can no longer spy your gaze.
The frown you are trying to hide.
I want to tell you not to worry for I have never felt so utterly complete without the need for anyone or anything
Instead I smile through silent tears and nod my head for you to see the beauty in all which surrounds us.
I think I know what faith is now
as my heart races and my chest swells
Yes
I believe now
