She Revels In His Light

"A photograph tells a story"

Font Size

Innocence will remain. 

 

There was no corruption in

the dark scene. 

She revels in his light.

 

I saw a photograph today. 

It looked old,

perhaps grotesque. 

Ignorance sees no beauty there. 

 

Limbs askew,

bent,

coiled and curved;

tortured.

 

Yet…

 

Despite her restraints

there was no repression. 

Emotions flow and

tears fall. 

 

Awareness of self;

it’s a living thing.

Her surrender

is not slavery. 

 

She is not sad

nor a prisoner. 

Emotionally bound,

embraced and cherished. 

 

She is flying,

fearless and free. 

She will not fall. 

He won’t let her.

 

For Lush Stories only.
