was cold as december
yet hot like the underworld
felt the world beneath me
saw trees bend with intensity
a force that brought cracks
with lights upon black
grasping the lantern
searching for after
the flowers tug, break
withhold love
like the words you write of
the fear and might
i was your light, as you were my power
the strength that kept
before all that was swept
and the luminescence that faded
with our magnetic heaven
