It wasn't your fault

But I still blamed you

Your vision was

Clearer

Than 

Oceans

Blue

The waves

Overtake us

Their attempt to

Subdue

You didn't care

If we floated

Or if we

Grew wings

And flew

It didn't really matter

As long 

As I

Was with you.

If only

It had been sooner

That moment I knew

The real 

Massive

Difference

Between

Him and you.

I knitted

Together

An idea

And

A dream

A deferred

Misguided

Notion

With a 

Heavenly

Theme.

Then spent

Many years

Wondering

Why

We argued

And screamed

This grand

Quilt

I had knitted

Fell apart

At the seams.

I searched

And I 

Searched

For you

In the 

Crannies 

And nooks

Saw only

Him and me 

There

But no

Passion;

Like in

Books

Then,

One day

A voice 

Above me

Whispered

The secret

Place 

To Look

That's

The day 

I met 

You

And 

That's 

Really

All it

Took.

From 

Blindness

To

Hindsight

With him

There

I saw

Black

With him

Gone

Your

Opalescence

Came

Tumbling back

The incandescence

Of

My mother's

Embrace

The

Pulchritudinous

Encounter

Of my

Newborn's 

Face

All the

Blessed

Family occasions

Assorted 

And combined

To

Demonstrate

Perfection;

Yahweh's

Flawless 

Design

You don't

Delight

In evil

But rejoice

With

Solid

Truth

You don't

Record

Wrongdoing

Not even

Tooth

For tooth

When you were

Formally

Introduced

To me

I couldn't

Recognize 

You

Got you

Confused 

With

Counterfeits

And instead

I just

Despised 

You

But now

Acquainted

With your 

Name

I know

Just who

You 

Are 

The light

Pollution

Smeared

My view

Dark sky

With one

Huge

Star

You light

My path

You give

Me hope

Ablaze

With 

Life

Anew

And if

There had

Never

Been a 

Him

I 

Might have

Appreciated

You.
