Oceans of yearning
Can swallow the sky
Its lone hint of existence
A tear in the eye
Heartache can dwarf
Eternity
Yet is quietly shouldered
In humility
The strength of endearment
Is in love’s release
It is in relinquishment
That we can find peace
Butterfly moments
Flickers of gold
We ought not to squander
What we cannot hold
