You were the Light I carried
its warmth
illuminating the path we trod;
Your flame warming my face
I your Dancing Nympth
you my Golden Prince
sequestering
Time in a Bottle
Fear and Negativity Throttled
But nymphs can dance
only so long
in the dark green forest
and princes
at some point
have realms to rule
and lights
always dim from lack of fuel
can become charcoal
we then
felt the torch more than the light
moths dying in the flame
habit begun to rule,
faces sour
But you
and I
secretly carried in leaden jar
embers from our light
never gave up
light dueling the night
light dueling with torch and flame
and we used it to heal you
on that hospital bed
when detached from
grimy groping
career seeking
meaninglessness
it became clear
in the end there is
only you and I
and those who care.
So gentle embers
swelled again
to flame
lit
as only it can only be
by the Human
Heart.
Your heart valves
unstuck
unclogged up
surged
that day with blood
the doctor said
by they don't know how
or what healed you
but I do.
