She knows me like no other

Parts of me that are not visible in the scorching light

Only under her luminous hues is where I am truly me

My phases begin to bleed into each other

Phases that are ugly, cruel and bleak

Phases that are kind, shine and glisten

She knows it all

In the deep night where, I am freezing begging for warmth

She reels me in and I bask in her comfort

For a moment I see a clear reflection

Only then realize I’ve always known her.
