Perfection Matured

by ME, Wendy M. Z.

The lines

the grays

The signs

of days...

The lessons

learned

Progression

earned...

The senses

allured

By perfection

matured.

from C.S. Lewis:

"To love at all is to be vulnernable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket ~safe, dark, motionless, airless~ it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable."
