i am still
         as stone.
kneeling
eyes closed
            arms at my sides
         grounded  in this
sea of
       slowly blinking
lights

i release
   all
that is
    me
in a soundless
          colorful burst
of energy
from my mind
to yours
an arrow
    of light
a message
              with intention

i will
             my data
        toward you in
               all  v u l n e r a b i l i t y
i bend space | toward you|
i command time | to warp around you|

i give you
     my dark
      despairing
        ruins
for inspection.

i give you
my brilliant
     bursts
       of   l i g h t n e s s
and joy
for review.

gaze at my
life
       decisions
         heart
from
all
    perspectives
and judge
     my worthiness.

i hide nothing
      i am still
     i am letting go.

And he said:
"Darling,
you are beautiful;
darling, don't be sad."
And even though
he didn't last,
he gave me back
the life
I never had.
