translucence

sky translucence, the autumnal leaves’
delicate dance as hypnotic

as the steady lull and hum
of dawn rearing its head

as a constant, I see the
delusions eating away

at your body, your hair
with silk silver on raven

black locks, your laughter
between breaths and

chattering, my own
attempts at understanding

a soul so voracious for light
it cannot contain it, as if

it collects it in its arms
just to let it go
