   Side out of light

Idling between abstract and realism.
I strive to strike a fine balance.
Implicit trust in the process.

for a reason,
and a purpose,
stronger than
mine,

even after

that sometimes

closer
to realism.

Let go,
I'll ride the high seas
And there my vessel to leave
Wait for the pirate to come
And abstract my flower
and quench my fire.
