MsAmendable Jan 2016
Before the world came darkness
And at its end was peace,
But chaos calmly churned between,
A violent masterpiece
  Jan 2016 MsAmendable
Alyssa Underwood
forgiveness not by epiphany or stealth
but slow dawning through pain's night
thorny ever-conscious struggle for love
which suddenly breaks on wings of light
"I wondered if that was how forgiveness budded; not with the fanfare of epiphany, but with pain gathering its things, packing up, and slipping away unannounced in the middle of the night."  
~ Khaled Hosseini
MsAmendable Jan 2016
There was no witness,
No prosecutor or defense,
No jury,
Only one man in a room of judges,
Waiting
Judge jury witness innocent evil trial
MsAmendable Jan 2016
And soft, unto vivid petal struck
The tender hand of golden light,
The violent violet blue aflame
To every eyes' intense delight
Spring colour flower sun
MsAmendable Jan 2016
Pebbles, rolled crystals
Tumbling from houses,
Roaring like lions
And timid as mouses

Frothy as softness
And wetter than seas,
The sweet rain cascades
On emerald-leaved trees
MsAmendable Jan 2016
And the frost descends
Like dust,
Kissed by the freezing rain,
In glittering ecstasy
MsAmendable Dec 2015
You fill me with sunsets,
Wrap the warm golden light around me,
Entrance me with midnight stars
And throw me to the heavens,
Where I fall to your safe arms
