pieces of me fly
in your direction
when you catch my eye,
whittled shards and chips
alight and cling delicately
adorning carnelian beauty.

the nameless blemish
is brushed away.
discarded parings of my soul flutter,
frozen by your gaze,
i could have been the world to you
my heart your home
had i been visible...
