I sit beneath your radiance,
oblivious to life
except where the shadows end.
You light my path,
the sun is dead by comparison.
My feet find purchase.
I remember the darkness,
life before you.
It is the mere vestige of a shadow.
I am warm.
My soul fills itself
with your refulgent song.
Our love, the unwithering tree
basks in your glow,
full of healing fruit that is ever ripe.
The moon dances with the sun
circling in orbit,
learning your lessons.
I am enthralled by your light,
examining, searching,
knowing it will quell every doubt.
You are my daydream,
lighting my life,
washing the shadows away.

Love the companion work too. Appropriately, it feels like a relief after Darkness. I love the way your poems are weighted. This one feels easy…almost weightless…like a dance in the sun, while darkness feels heavy, with very hard angles. Great stuff! Keep it coming!
Thanks, Weeb!
