she carried a light
hid it from the tangled world
while nothingness consumed she fed its flame
while others stood on the edge alone
she sat by the fragile flicker
those in bed with uncertainty – tumbled - stretched - scoffed at the flimsy wick
such weakness
but the light kept her company
the light banished the nothing
and one day in the distance
hidden from the tangled world
he carried a light.
