Understatement

Who are you?
God 
Passion
Forbearance
Whom strides with glory
Mended each fragment of me
Never a button undone
That’s an understatement

That time, 
Your good light
Returned with silence by society
Society hasn’t met you have they
No wonder they don’t have manners

Who weaved the universe?
The reason to live
The meaning of life
Such cliches
It’d take 10 generations 
Perpetual writing
To fully classify you entirely,
That’s an understatement

This time,
Let me be the one to mend your broken fragments,
Let me be the one to thank you unlike society,
Let me be the one to write perpetually for you,
My Aiden
