Uncurling Brightness
She may call herself invisible.
But I see her.
Melancholy eyes with a reflective inquisitive smile
for those that deserve it.
Hands that wish to touch,
and be touched.
Lips that wish to kiss
and be cherished.
Silent resolve,
and practiced patience
bundled in a cocoon
of courage that never
leaves any doubt.
Only a fool would fail to love
her.
Only a fool would see
her as a fading spiral,
while I only see
an uncurling brightness.

"Only a fool would fail to love

This verse just seems to tie this entire poem into place, Philip. This is a beautiful write. Sorry I didn't catch this earlier:(. . .Devlin.
