"Everything is Song. Everything is Silence. Since it all turns out to be illusion, perfectly being what it is, having nothing to do with good or bad, you are free to die laughing." - James Broughton

You are stained glass
against my heart,
different shades reflecting
my many faces as
you step into the light
Shimmering, alive,
fragile as the beat
within. This metronome
Is your pulse to dictate.
Hands through my hair
Guide my limbs, puppet
Strings to follow the
Orchestra within this
Glass opera house you
Have built for me,
A sanctuary
Within once silent
Flesh walls.
