Kairi



greyish silver
soft as the finest silk scarf
joy epitomized
a very big smile in a very small package
four-legged proof
proof of the good, the possible, the capable
a little mirror, reflecting back at me
all that I do and don't wish to see

a wave of warmth
ignorant of my love, secure in my nurturing
divergent, our views
yet connected, our hearts

grey skies
grey areas
all uncertain
unknown
but you
of grey you
of nothing other have i been so sure
