Fireworks

The eyes of my heart glittered with awe, when I saw the darkness in me light up, making me see things that were good and bad; things I didn't know existed inside me; things I didn't want my beloved to see.... Splendor of the fireworks spiraling and shooting calligraphically across my dark space didn't last long; the sparks had revealed some dark things about me, which my beloved couldn't destroy or erase. .....like a wolf which belongs in the wild, she packed and left me in my world....

This poem captured my attention Teddy from the first line, and every line after that was just as amazing. A beautiful, dark, intensely interesting poem; I want to know what she couldn't destroy or erase... Just beautifully worded, the imagery is magical and compelling in your second stanza. Loved it! Congrats on your win! :)

Wow Teddy, I'm not sure where you just took me, but I was captivated and led to a place both sad and dark with heartbreak. Very poetic .... CayCay
