vortex of perfection

 
cauldron stirred by unseen force
churning turbulence
shattering quivering surface
breath stalled on inhale
and pulse skips
missing a single beat
as reality slowly shifts
adding buoyancy to heavy thoughts
iridescent swirls rising from the bottom
bits of memory long haunting me
at long last settling
and I’m looking through the debris
mud & silt clouding visibility
trying futilely to find the beauty in pain
as I dry heave all the yesterdays my stomach couldn’t take
trying desperately to see
through vision that’s not mine
willing His view to alter my splintered sight
as He cradles my fragility
while praising my strength
understanding
some fractures defy any healing
damage & warrior
being intricately intertwined
and He cherishes the fusion
offering shelter for my entirety
both my tortured & my steeled mind
nurturing the subtle
and reveling in the wild
drawn to the woven union
its delicate intricacy
uncanny
as muddied water turns crystalline
shimmering with electricity
simultaneously igniting & grounding me
leaving me stunned
wondering how it happened
those twists & idiosyncrasies
no longer buried
now have belonging
accepted & welcomed
as I willingly submit
to the nourishing bindings of ivory cradling me
changing tainted images of days long gone
with purifying truths of today
