Scattered

and everything she was
scattered into stars
not with fire
but with the softness 
of breath leaving lungs
with the final exhale of something 
that loved too deeply
she was not meant to stay contained
she spilled beyond the borders of names
beyond the limits of flesh and time
she came undone in light
now she lives in the hush 
between moonrise and sleep
in the way the night leans in to listen
she flickers
not missing
but woven through everything
a fragment in every shimmer
a whisper in the stillness
she is the story the sky tries to remember
each time it burns

  1. Your imagery is always so freaking deep! I love it! 😍🌹It’s not a shock that CC always knocks it out of the park with that poetry tho! So you keep on doing yo thang! No matter what doubters may say! ❤️🙂
