Beyond Echo

The tilt of you, the fractures where the light slips in.

I trace your doubts like constellations.

Your mistakes beg for reverence, a desperate proof of life.

I shaped you into a vision without weight,

perfection hollowing all meaning

until I warped your memory just to survive.

There is no hesitation in standing bare,

skin exposed, offering everything.

It is the easiest thing to do.

If I am any good, your chaos will be my endurance

the weight and counterweight missing.

But I will not stay for the past;

I will only stay if we keep moving,

I will not make a home out of echoes.
