-brilliant-

her reflection,
                    -brilliant-
a beautiful traced etch of a
midnight silhouette,
as the eclipsed moonlight
                            glistened

forgiveness gave her reason,
as did the way the mirror
                            listened

her delicate nature frees her-
left topsy-turvy when shadows
creep in her humble
                            haven

gazing at her amazing eyes
that surface her depth-
no longer forsaken nor
                            graven

she has no wealth in riches,
none in the flesh resides-
wishes to see the world 
feeding life with harmonious 
                             affluence

protection from pain emanating-
purification rests in her soul – 
like rivers cascading devoid filth; 
                        no more
                            effluence

later i shall see her radiance
when the stardust surges-
arising into the darkness to
                             alleviate

all the ones who rescued her
and kept her soul safe she does
                            appreciate

gliding along and floating into 
an abyss of natural seasons-
the hues of her humble heart 
                            christened

her reflection-
                  -brilliant-
as the eclipsed moon
                           glistened
