...Love...
will come to you,
I am sure of that
and fly a kite on your wounds
to which you will curl the final tear
around your finger.
and hold your love
as if it were the last branch
reaching out from the side
of a giant mountain
and you've been falling
your whole life.
It will come to you
in the same way it left you,
unexpected
with your shivering heart
throwing itself to the lightning
blind
thunderous
and mad."
An extract from Anthony's Anaxagorou poem "It will come to you".

A poem that takes my breath away
and gives me something lighter back
