Worldy Riches

It's thrilling to think
there's a part of you
that only I know.

Thank you for sharing it with me.

In that moment, were you aware? 

Did you see yourself cracking open
and becoming vulnerable? 

Or was it natural, 
like a river flowing over stones?

I saw the moment you cracked
and the light came pouring through
It was rich and warm, like the sun.
