A New Day’s Light, Natalia Go

Through fiery arches

and columns,

disintegrating

shafts, flutes, and plinths,

we will run;

I will hold your hand.

To the other side

of this crumbling temple,

far from the rubble,

where the grass awaits

wet with morning dew,

I will walk with you.

See the skies burning

with the new day’s light;

towers

rising above tomorrow’s

hills and plains

where we will sit with Pain

and listen

‘til it’s but a whisper

under the crescent’s glimmer.

Watch!

The fireflies dancing

to the songs of minstrels.

I am but a scribbler;

I have none to offer

but my words.

But if you come with me,

I can take you

to incredible worlds

if only for a night’s wink.

And together,

we will inscribe our dreams

into reality

and each other’s names

to infinity!
