you are a golden thing… i could get lost in all the little ways you carry love​…

you are a golden thing in this heavy, heavy world

i could get lost
in all the little ways
you carry love, and carry light,
and hold so much
goodness in your being,
you are a golden thing
in this heavy, heavy world,
and everything feels new
when i look at you
