gaia

by ea

i've dwelt
in the zeniths
of your sacred
experience,
scoured
your secret
places,

and made
my abode in
the shadow of
your darkness,
surviving the
flood
of your pain.

i've seen
our bridge,
with remedial
mission,
crumble like
twigs where
the flame is.

i'll soon
be gone in
a million years,
but your
paths will
remember my
name.
