You. You ran through my heart
keeping it open
pouring all the Love
out, in witness
in honor
Tears fall like raindrops,
jewels spattering on a thirsty plain.
Pain, tiredness, grief
run through the threads
of this communal heart.
Strong, made gentle
through steady stitches,
rows of love.
Messy, straight, quiet or bold
strings, broken pieces hidden.
It came together
to capture it all - us all.
To hold – and release - us
to the world.
Born anew.
