It Is...

It is...

wonderfulengineering universe.jpg
...brighter than a thousand stars,
if they all rested, compressed onto,
a single, tiny, speck of sand,
so why is it so hard to find?
even when, so bright, it shines?

more valuable than a thousand,
perfect diamonds, cut for a goddess,
more delicate, than a butterfly's eyelash,
yet, resolute-foundation, beneath chaos,

it's what scars my heart, delightfully,
with a deep, and branded, unique mark,
undeniably, possessed, by choice,
by the one, who does possess it,

and though my offerings come from hands,
so dirty, and feeble, please, understand,
that there is a strength, that lies beneath,
to which I hold so dear and keep,

so tightly clutched within my grasp,
from birth I've held it in my hand,
for it, I kept, deep in my soul,
a place where no enemy could ever go,

so that, one day, when I found you,
although, I had not met you, yet,
I could show you, what it is, in me,
my vulnerability, because you shared,
yours, too, with me.

Thank you brother, and yes, it is. ;P Cheers to STEEM! Cheers to my beautiful @audiefaith!!! :) Cheers to your Faith too!!! CHEERS CHEERS CHEERS!!! lol

Ah there you are...We haven't chatted for a while. All good?

Ya, I'm alright. The transmission went out in our van and so been a little stressed, but at the moment I'm doing good. My trading has taken a turn for the better, and I seem to have become profitable. I think I will have the money to get us a new vehicle in the next few days if all goes well. Even got some new 'threads.' I'm gonna post something about them here in a moment. I'll tag you. It will be like bromance porn. You'll say, "look what a badass my new friend is." hahaha

Haha...Well, I'm looking forward to seeing the new duds. (clothing.)

Glad things seem to be picking up...We all need a break.

Yes, yes yes yes yes yes yes

So...What you're trying to say is "yes?" Sorry, I wasn't sure. :)

That we all need a break sometime. That was a big hell-yes, broken down into pieces so it's more easily digestable.
