My thoughts while feeding my baby at 4 am
Within these umbered walls I sit
In awe of love and life
Beneath this violet sky
Ten billion share this sentiment
In shells and clusters echoed on
Eternally.
Here I am won
By beauty so intense
that squinting eyes and shadows
Never could impede
This fierce desire I have
To leave in ink and wavering hand
A record of this scene.
A record of this love.
Shells and clusters we may be
(It echoes on eternally)
Just two of endless entities
And changing all the while.
But in this moment,
You are mine.
Content.
In shadows lie.
Indifferent to echoing
Indifferent to everything
But what I can provide
Though here another drifts in dreams
They do not break with dawn
But drive us through our waking lives.
So much lies unattained
So here we strive and toil
And you will do the same.
But in this moment I am blessed
To see the wan light on your face
reflect a peaceful smile
And know without doubt or expectation
That with you I am fulfilled.
