White Hole

'I don't believe in magic,' the young boy said. The old man smiled. 'You will, when you see her.' -Atticus

You are a white hole

How lucky I am

To witness you

They say you can't exist

But I know the truth

I saw with my own soul

All light emanate from you

During that same beat

My heart leaped

When I first regarded you

My heart is incapable of forgetting

Your honey beam of warmth

And icicle stars comforting your new moon

You are just as infrequent as

Each rebirth of the universe

And the source of it too

You live in the moment

Rather than across time

Your legacy is all light you liberate

And all gifts you refuse

You can make anything by writing. -C.S. Lewis

My passion is to spread what it means to love.
