what if this world
isn’t really as big as we -
perceive it to be -
what if there’s more to
life
than just you and me
what if it was written in the stars…
what we will become
what if it was there
before we were ever one
tonight i saw the stars shine brighter than ever before
i couldn’t tell if it was my eyesight that was different
or my perception
i wasn’t able to distinguish my thoughts clearly
but i knew that there is meaning up there for me
i know that life is bigger than just what we see
that there’s a larger force at play
but not a man or a woman, per se -
an energy source
ever flowing and omnipresent
the moon lit up the entire night sky
and as i stared at it, i could feel it birthing new life
i could feel it giving me energy
and because i was willing and able to receive
it hit me fully
i have never been one to talk on God,
but tonight i felt that energy in my entire being
i felt it fill my soul
i could feel different worlds colliding
shadows in the dusk
and beauty in the stars
i could see the ages pass before me
my ancestors giving me signs
i could feel the energy so fully
that at first i was scared
but once i realized fear is just projection
i was able to shed my skin
and just experience -
experience the flow
of nature,
but also just energy.
i was able to just be.
