Within shadows
light surfaces
Creeping through the cracks in other peoples lips.
Have been in darkness so long
Eyes are useless for what needs to be seen.
Wretched light
From fire!
From sun!
How long hast thou been far?!
&
In your place, a shadow,
An empty shell
Who with silken hands
Covered my eyes
And named my blindness
Love.
