A sparkling flash exploded into petals 

right in the middle of your yellow eyes-

black holes, the multiverse’s doors          

unlocked the spiralling allure,

absorbed my light

into the nothingness of life. 

Arising from unknown altars 

the silky petals touched my blooming soul.

An instant flash of love the light restored 

in muddy fields of mind encaging your heart- 

an instant of the truth imbued in your lightless world. 

 I had the chance to see the spark before you spoke.
