Sweet Light

Your light was unruly

It longed to burn with the radiance

of a thousand stars which are birthed from the

chaos of the night

It was the rare kind of soul,

the one that had not yet learned

the rules of the earth, the world or the universe.

What we are allowed and not allowed to do.

Not taught to dim its extravagant light for the eyes of others.

Because not everyone deserves your light, not everyone can see it.

Its a special sort of light. 

One word of advice sweet light,

be fearless in the fire you have in your soul

let it take over you

Be daring in the perfection that rests in you,

you are perfection, you are you.

Its your untamed and reckless stitched-up heart 

that I love so very dearly. 

Its not easy to admit, but what I see in you 

is what I wish to see in myself

and the only way this can happen

is if you become mine

so sweet light, be the light of my day,

my month, my year and my life

for I cannot see without you.
