nickname musings

[Winterloc]

Sparky, sparkle-plenty, chameleon and blondie,
she loved anything tender or unique.
Sweet endearments and older friends,
it makes her feel bad she doesn't cherish any of them. 

This one soared at the speed of light -
through the narrowest wires in her mind;
to within the network she held her deepest creed.
She's falling short, she'd often find. 

Eyes follow the soul,
what's right takes its toll.
They give true glimpses 
of failed outward instance.

Of all the nicknames she could invite,
all the gifts in all of time,  
'Diamond Eyes' walked in and burned pure light  
into her cloaked and never sought soul. 
Now her soul felt the shine,
as soul and wires combined.

Then again, maybe it wasn't meant that way at all.
