Seraphim

I rode the updraft of emotion

of your shy smile, your wicked brow.

I saw all of you, especially the parts

You hid the most. The secrets.

They were my favorite.

The fragile child with its pain and grace.

The stealthy strength of your manhood.

Brilliantly bold and integrally complex.

The humor of your dispirited soul.

Holding strong the anchor of your empire.

I enjoyed your splendor, beyond reason.

How it pained me to spotlight the flaw.

To turn the gaze outward, gently.

You are such a brilliant masterpiece.

To temper your storm I will send you

the most beautiful of all angels.

She will wear red and love you as you deserve.
