How we fall

This is how we fall in love.
First, we fold the pieces of corruption and burn them.
We smile at the beauty of the space where the clutter had been that held us.
In the mirror, we see the glint of life that we cannot deny is precious,
And dare the world to deny us.
Next, we conjure from the well within us,
New pieces which we label truth, light and trust.
We stick these pieces all around until what is outside
Is the same as what is inside of us.
We create because we are,
Souls full of magic;
Oshun with our fluidity,
Oya, storming femininity.
In the mirror, we see the creation and we recognise,
Love.
