Unphased

I am one who carries love who also carries grief I hold life’s many phases like the moon engulfed in shadow this weight has pulled me inwards to discover hidden craters that may become rich seams how far till I reach darkness the tides rule pain and pleasure our wealth of brilliant dreams and loss of all we cherish as we fall to earth again the sky of summer brightness bears trails of rain and tempest growth needs the bleakest weather to forge its strongest limbs and I will strive to keep the love I bear inside supple, deep and vibrant sprout leaves for my new moon.
