Scintilla

Shards

No, I'm not an insomniac

But reassurance is what I lack.

It kept me awake, in the depths of the night

But now it seems I have found my light.

A sudden encounter, in the light of day

I came to a realization as I was smiling on my way.

Three simple words, nothing to him

Perhaps it had even been just a whim.

But they lifted the weight from my shoulders and my heart

Even though I had not realized it from the start.

Now the darkness has receded, just the slightest bit

And I'm hoping, back together, my heart will fit.
