glory light
horizon fire brimmed
i empty the weight of the last
and turn sunward to the new
fire dim
ceiling awash in topaz
i untangle my mind from you
and draw a breath I knew
pale ebony
lanscaped in caution
I align with false securities
and brace for precious few
gray treadstone
mocking mad shadows
I close my heart to the death
another heartbeat less you
