Arcing light of morning
captured in your kaleidoscopic
prismatic eyes, resting
on a rusting horizon
it bleeds amber
and indigo dreams, resisting
which retreat, as nights sighs
into sleep –

We smear our hand across dust
in hope
we can feel something
made from everything
that we were;
that was once was
with a swipe –
these particles dance and swirl

Whirl of emotions
maelstrom of commotion
set in motion
the need to embrace one another –
to recall the quips,
stories of yesterday
and every face that smiled
before this time
we revile –

Cherish that voice,
palm their cheek
and wipe that tear –
and remember
to remember…

Swooning light of the candle
captured in a halcyon mind
moments and memories
of everything
better than we thought it could be.
