the po~et 13 (when light pierces the darkness)


Paul is unaware of how she feels. She has managed to elude him--until now. He soon discovers her hiding place. He could feel her but couldn't see her. She had been able to be near him without his knowledge. When he found out his heart sank down into the soles of his shoes, but the realization of her carefully navigated steps gave him hope.

The forces of nature have a way of bringing things together. One must write them down and speak them into existence. A law proven when light pierced the darkness. Sometimes his world seemed darkened longing for who and what he did not have. It was devoid of form.

That night he whispered a secret prayer for it to be so. That he would soon feel her body in his arms and that the words he wrote of her would soon part his lips, land and kiss the outside of her ear.
