There is an answer in your smile,
but questions die like hydra heads--
or blooming things
that spill their seeds
when picked.
If I'm your light,
your world's too dark.
But how can I deny
that nothing shines like you
when all you see is me?
You know that I deny
the nonexistence of the gleam.
So there's an answer to your smile.
Humility and vanity
can blame each other all they want.
I only see one tide of life
in cutting hands that quake to hold.
I only know that shadows flee
when you make wonders of my wondering.
