things change when love walks through the door.
there is a brightness to every moment.
heavy eyes open wide with ease.
worries hide away.
wounds heal..so well that you forget they ever caused much pain.
trees dance even if the air is still.
there is a calmness over everything.
things change
when love
walks through the door.

torn

the blackness is pierced
with a sharp cool tingling blade of light.
how long the seam has been resisting the tear!
each thread clung desperately to the last.
how much would have been seen.. .
how many spared were it torn a moment earlier!
but it was not so.
it would never have been so.
it may never be so.
i step outside.
beyond the tear.
i never knew it was dark
nor that the darkness blinded me.
i see for the first time.
hardly knowing what my eyes take in.
