Shatters Aftermaths Afters Ever Afters

 

And a window to the surface of the sea  
Opened before me.  
 
Lost and found in a depth instilled tranquility.  
 
A womb infused diffused infusion diffusion of gravity.  
 
That summer.  
 
A white out – black out  
black out – white out  
Glass stained -  
Stained glass  
of  
sand -  
Sun  
and  
the will  
to  
become  
In  
the wave machine  
of  
sight & sound  
sound & sight  
soundless sights  
sightless sounds  
nightless days  
dayless nights  
and  
Waves…  
Yes  
Waves...  
 
And I thought the writing was gone.  
 
Yes…    
I thought the writing was  
gone.  
Like shards –  
Yes…    
Shards  
of dark…    
that fall hard  
into darkness that is deeper denser and…  Dark  
 
fallen  
was  
I?  
 
And then I heard her voice.  
Oh…  I heard her voice.  
 
How long had it been?  
Light of my life –  
Life & light  
Light & life  
within  
the life I was living  
as I was living  
life  
not like living  
or  
 
dying.

Author's Note
They gave me a breathing thing to strengthen my lungs. Each repetition made a confused feeling of (pain or puke). And every time I opened my eyes my grandma, who is a medicine woman, was there, like an angel over my eyes. And when I was well enough, I went to the beach to heal.  And the voice...  the muse and the muse.
