each word
an annotation
a symbol of something
deeper,
each verse
to be linked
to the subconscious,
arousing
within
an emotion
so private
it's unknown to the poet,
newly discovered,
it's all context
poetry,
the prism of your life
the light of the words
the illumination
a new world,
a poem,
reaching deeper
than what meets the eye
marks on paper

it links
paints
conceals
glows,
a beauty
emerges
stays
fades
then leaves,
having changed us forever
