Heart, soft like water
Clothed in darkness
Bleeding quietly
Eyes that would not see

Could the days after be
Without “Let there be light?”
Eyes that would see — blindness
Ah, blindness

Maybe more kindness
Perhaps more silence
Ah! More patience
Possibly more change

I lace my boots
Wind dusty, heart heavy
I run these paths of fractured stars
And walk the rest

Maybe I am broken again –
Only somewhere new this time
Yet, I am a pilgrim
And the light gets in still
