hope

melting the haze
his breath drips off her vine
enchanting the eternal darkness
in the world below
killing her undertones of grey
while the gravity sinks her red
giving life to the stones once again

breath of brightness feeds the fire
life finally set in motion
she is rising from the ashes beneath

in his eyes she sees the birth of a thousand suns
a chance to give life to
all that the angels have dreamed

he gives her all the will she will ever need
to grow this strange and lovely thing

this rare creature that she is
has slept a thousand nights
and only wishes to dance inside

where the light melts

if she would just wake up and move
if she would just recognize it for what it is
the diamonds would fall
then she could be whole
