Treasures

On the cusp of a stranded daze
a chance is born
Straddling each strand of 
a falling raindrop
Accompanying its fate a crust 
soon forms
Wavering from solidity
to pangs
The eyes shut in reverence of
a faintly gaze
That renders all chances unseen
In the dazzling array of sight
two tears reverse
In the swelling cloud of woe
true treasures ply

I always wondered where chances were born, and now I know. You captured me in the first line and never fully let me recover. Nice one Lebo.
