Clouded Clarity

 

Dust can swirl,

Fog can blanket,

Night can fall…

For now I see

With the clarity

Of a heart mended

With crystal silicone.

 

Cracks still visible,

Penetration impossible,

Expansion inevitable;

 

The more it breaks

The fonder the heart becomes…

Finding more reasons

Than ever

To open the window to the soul

So the world can see,

Failure is not an option

Rather an inspiration

To fly higher

Then the cloud I fell from.

There is both a sense of pain and hope mingled in your words.. You bring us to a place of loss, yet not despair... hope fills all the lines in between... Powerful and inspiring, my friend!

I like this and like others , the could part.
Hearts are surely broken and mending takes
many stitches and lots of glue, silicone...but as you said
makes us stronger ... lovely as always, Dale.

Peace

you've spun a negative into a positive... the closer you get to love the harder you are willing to fall to have it. Very nice! :)

I really like the cloud 9 feel to this
the more your heart breaks is a sure sign
of how much love you feel, I really loved that
part!
