And as broken as they are,
they are still
solid
(but not strong)
Solid and full of heat and brilliance,
and as they erupt within the sky,
white and so fragmented,
these stones become something much greater than themselves.
Its blaze
betrays its c o m p o s i t i o n.
(Let go)
Let fresh wounds heal as these kisses shatter across your sky.
F I G H T .
You cannot hold onto these pebbles any more,
and in this empty space filled only with fog,
we can find
such b e a u t i f u l monotone
(Grey)
This damper on the world keeps you as brilliant as ever.
Sooth your wounds once more
and let you
implode.
I'll fix you.

The combination of font and background makes it a little hard to read clearly, which takes away from the piece, maybe consider changing one? That aside, this was very good, i love the design of it

Thanks so much for entering and best of luck in the contest x -
I love how you played around with form here, and the take on the prompt was flawless. The background, however, makes it a little hard to read. That's the only criticism, though!
