Infinitesimal Beauty
The veil is rising
Easing off
my fear strained face,
it catches
on crystalized tears,
pulling away
I bath in liberty
The first airless void
stills all movement,
abandon was never
nameless, faceless
No longer condemned
sliding towards the light,
I take in my first breath
free of regret and torment
In the ensuing minutes
infinitesimal beauty
takes my breath again
as I exhale my first sigh...
