You can’t see it
save for the leaf
the wish upon a dandelion
the petal
that is pulled on the tail end of it.
But you can feel it
through its warm embrace
that shines glittering gold
and swallows you whole
until you can’t breathe.
And then you fall
into deep depths and swirling currents
of ‘I love you’
and the false hope
of a forever fairy tale ending.
Until one day you awaken
and accept the fire has emberred
because reality has transitioned
from the same into different
from a pair into solitary.
And then Spring happens
and the hope of resurgence
comes after the winter of your Soul
so that you can embrace
love’s new warmth again.
