The Split Above the Tree

Where a Soul Chooses to Shine

By LUCCIAN LAYTHPublished about 8 hours ago 1 min read

Cornered—precise chaos.

Fall—

I am there.

Under the tree,

the third heaven split:

light above,

your eyes below—

hell at rest.

A quarter moon

snared in a branch—

given.

A soul—

chooses:

to shine,

not burn.
