When you first noticed it,
it was so deep inside
it felt like an ache.
As you followed the convoluted folds,
the fractal turnings
in and in,
it started to feel sharper
and its heat
became insistent.
You followed hard
(as hard as you could,
the fragile softness at the edges
slowing you sometimes)
You came to where
you could see its glow,
still through many layers,
and now you approach
reverently
feeling your way
knowing the great light
will burst upon you any time.
