"I envy you: The Whisper to the One Who Still Burns"

I love the way you smile every time the sun shines, the way you reached for something far and breathe with it. Your laughter sounds like the sunlight— full of hope and light, you chase the morning with open arms, welcoming it the way you always do. You say, "life's full of hopes, everyday is a new day" as you breathe like it never hurt. A sigh escaped my lips, thinking, "how could you live like your ember never turned into ash." I looked at my hands, covered in gloves, hiding the burns left behind. I walked away, afraid the light might notice how I've wanted to shine— but was consumed by darkness. -Arthel (Althelim) just sharing one of my piece I wrote last year, definitely my favorite:) #Poetry #Poet #Writing
