This made me think of someone who has been hurt so much by a man cheating, the new "other woman" has the man's love now (the light) and the one left, has only darkness. The hatred for the way vows have been broken, born some time ago and having had to be endured many times, is now worn, as say, a garment or she is just worn down by the hatred. Says so much in so few words! Really great write! Barbara
This piece is a short write, but filled with emotion and meaning. The light of love being graced upon another. The final straw to break an ever so fragile relationship. Heartbroken, the hurt, anger, and pain.. bubbles from the inside and now flowing outward and worn as hate.
You have a unique sense of rhythm that is evenly out of time. It flows like, but is without jazz. The only aspect that tugs at my taste bud is the word 'Tis. It seems to be the odd word out. The rest of your poem is stylistically consistent and a nice detour off of Highway-2-typical-2-finish reading.

This reminds me of a person looking into a mirror, then the lightbulb illuminating the image blows out. Darkness consumes and the person is left with no image only self realizations.
