you've gone
from a candle
and its secret
wishes
to fast-paced
fibers of
electricity
like a diary
that turns to
poetry
everything else
that means more
before phrasing
expands
inside you
as you add beads
to the necklace
glass becomes
an industrial
diamond
and the
emphasis
is up
to you
you who do
both
the flames &
the melting

I really love this poem - it is a kickass birthday poem and I hope that it was enjoyed! The ending was my favorite part of this by far - but the rest was still outstanding
love it!
Keep writing
