Aurora

Borealis;
The shining in the night-
Hazy waves of violets, blues-
Refraction like that of glass-
Whispers in milky Black-

Memories of a youth forgotten-
Carefree, Arrogant, Young-
When life itself was had;
Now seems so far away-
The complexity of simplicity-

So much now I wish to know,
Only one way to learn, to build-
Erase the time which movement borne,
Replace with yesterday’s silence-
Stationary-

Broken glass-
Midnight’s Past-
The irony to understanding-
What we cannot be,
What we are to become-
Two sides of the same coin-
One length of the shining night-
In its hues we are born anew!
