unravel

Posted on Updated on

as you slowly reveal
me to myself
through every experience
may I only become
a heart that bleeds love
a soul that pours light

    I love the idea of the match.When we light it we give it its life and then it dies. Maybe our life is the same but the time line is different.

    I like “unravel” and combination of the picture of the match being unraveled as it’s life is spent shedding light!

    “Man is a mystery. It needs to be unravelled, and if you spend your whole life unravelling it, don’t say that you’ve wasted time. I am studying that mystery because I want to be a human being.”
    ― Fyodor Dostoyevsky
