Without The Blackouts

without the blackouts
he could have been first
for he also loved so well
light,
without the darkness
light would not have been
too visible
at the beginning of
twilight
without the air
the wings find no use
without the waves of the sea
the winds
would not be felt
without my mind the heart
will not be
important
and without feelings
reasons will have no place
to stay
all things are of use
to one another
no one is complete
everyone is
interdependent
a word uttered
can also
describe your
silence
