Uncompromised Understanding

What falls from my eyes is dry; as crystals of a saltine Frozen waters, be damned; I find calm in what they mean Sweetness of their memory; form a perfections praline Warmth of space, you're a true descendant of constantine Thawing by infernos of thoughts; they returned to saline With untarnished glare, I find to be a perfect sheen Through earned tears; uncompromised understanding, can be seen

Sometimes our tears know more than we do. To feel- in the know, in the now. You wrote it so beautifully.

I would be an unconscionable liar, if I said that you hadn't been a muse; once in awhile, and just as much as your friendship I appreciate that about you..... <3

To have wept is to have felt, to feel as though you've been swept, is to have found the reason to have knelt, in homage to what our eyes do not see. Warmest regards A.S.
