she is 

the tender pink glow of 

the rising sun over calming waves

the lake after a storm on summer days

the soft fluffy clumps of snow

that drift like feathers

from a sheet-white sky

the gentle whispers 

of a small river channel

washing over stones

on its way to meet the rapids


she is peace

she is beauty

her gracefuls steps carry more 

than just the burden of her bones

they carry with her the weight of the world

of a thousand worlds you'll never see

yet her footfalls are quiet, 

never betraying the horrible forces 

pressing down on her shoulders


her strength is that she 

carries a world she'll never live in

holds up a sky she'll never see

even when her spine crumbles

and her knees buckle

she will smile

knowing that 

we were always together

and 'til the end of ends

we will always be
