glory seeps through her darkness
a halo risen above the dark shell
underneath
is gold

smiles escape the horror held within
a collage of wandering dreams
forging a
natural beauty

fly, precious butterfly, soar away
out of the dead collection
black leather
removed

And there I stand
observing her rebirth
an individual soul
reentering our realm
of its own accord
And there I stand

the blazing star leaves a void
of space, the vacuum
into which I fall
she doesn't look back

she is standing, now
where I had once been, facing a new direction
has this crossroad darkened me?
wait, can you see me?
-- no, I see Nothing
