And she realizes in that


And she realizes in that moment all that is divine and faulted in her life. She stares at what is left of her bare body all frayed around the edges: remnants of despair. 

She collects them and lays her soul out. She vows one piece at every beautiful place that beholds her. 

There will soon be nothing left to hold back the radiance that pursues her.
