the tender rush

cracks formed in stone I'd thought long hardened the heart spilling out meekly first, before the tender rush into brilliant light radiant, hot, dangerous the brilliance of your love shines upon my spilling heart and sets my mind aglitter with little joys and little worries sets my mind spinning when you are afar and yet when you are near mind and heart are lucid, clear as a cloudless night

The finer things you bring with you, not carry as baggage. Though some may not, I'd suggest try to keep that tenderness close. Wear it as a second skin. But what do I know. -Richard
