Woman Clothed with the Sun - Alice Pike Barney

It's all the ways darkness drapes
showing where light is in reality
how it's part and parcel 
I can't look at myself
but I see a reflection from your eyes

sat in a circle 
we can tell each who we are
I need to hear it to exist

may I rest my head on your shoulder my friend 
pass light person to person
compelled to run and run until I looked back
I'm mid flight as you catch me
stock still and mesmerised at existence 
unextinguished for today
visible not as outer layers
not as anything at all
other than not the darkness
