Always, almost.
To be seen is not to be loved. But to be loved is to be seen and understood completely.

it's a sort of grace, this death,
to build a whole world in the slender
curve of one's rib, and new life
from the tender marrow of grief. When
those you nourish hear your
people singing in the sunlit blue-green
vastness overhead, do they
remember then? Are they grateful? Or do
they close their eyes and go on
blindly eating; content and oblivious to
the unending bounty of your love?

for @montereybayaquarium 's deep sea december prompt 'feast'
to stardust you shall return
all that is left of you is tethered to a tremor.
your absence widens, and keeps on widening until we are finally separate.
the gulf between us is a star-fed river.
the gulf between us is a light-starved chasm.
I watch you convulse, collapse into yourself.
you, a soft nebulous shadow that grows warm and bright, incandescent, from a seed.
so quiet. so very quiet.
you spin away in the vacuum of space. pulse light. scintillate morse code answers.
i hear the silence.
i hear everything you want to say.

There's a sky over the sky, where the sun still shines through, find me there; amidst the trials and tribulations, when things still fall in place, find me there.

The need
You
protect
yourself
by
keeping
apart
from
the
crushing
heartlessness
of
the world,
freed
of
the need
to
be
so
careful.
