You have seen the shape of my mortality
The inescapable struggle of loneliness and pain
Yet, you choose to give me the gift of life and love
And I am unflinchingly alive
Irrepressibly alive
Fully alive
Full of experiencing
Every fragile
Miraculous
Juicy
Aching
Tender
Beautiful ounce of love
Igniting the fire that burns against the midnight of my indifference
