The Whisper

shattered heart, or shattered mind,
for things aren't always as they seem.
Running from, is running to --
through desire,   through hopes,   in dreams.

here.   there.    as everywhere:
Disguise and Reveal   merge and blend in chaotic bliss.
'n with eye to discern -- Silence speaks her wisdom,
and All is seen, crystal.

oh dear heart, so feared to be broken
yet aches release from tethered bond.
"shatter!" I say,   with fearful tremble,
but with eye  that will not look away...

...and when dust'ed settled,
behold, a new --
freer.
freer.

   freely  you
