I am the person who
unravels life.
I open up my memory
to search for truth.
If you look deeply in
the wrinkles
you will see
sunlight.
I’m not a
camera that blocks
the arches of the
dark.
I sit and watch as you
doze on the verge of
falling.
I can’t let you
fall, so I rescue
you for something
so priceless–
life.
Now I stand before the
light
open-hearted and
lovable
a throb of fevered care
a crowning of a child
a piece of light.
