We(ll)ness

sink,slowly,sadness
emerging as untorn
we ripped away the embellishment
and wiped away what we'd sworn
we'd never be
we'd never say
we'd never look that way
at you, we
are
forgiven, splendid, tender,
and oh so revered
split, salty, and sour
in this our darkest hour
the kosmos has shifted
into the tone of we
no longer barren mistress,
coupled i am not me
though we may be bruised and broken
it's true that they will see
a fiery fury
evap.or.ating
splendid, silent, steward
you are we.....
