You confuse yourself for a stagnant pond
But you are a raging river that infinitely flows
Fills every space, reaches all receptive places on this earth
A melody that cascades into notes too high for the voice to reach
An electromagnetic spectrum beaming into colors the eyes are unable to see
You are what cannot be fathomed
Only felt
Experienced briefly before hiding again
I thought I built these barriers of brick, iron, and lead
I thought you did
But instead of you or me
It was life's way all along
Now you think what you are not
Is what you are
And as I run up against them
They give me pause.
And I realize for a moment
Maybe no one is at fault
But it isn't any less upsetting
I want to break them down more than I want to be immortal
Because mortal is not what we are
We are
Echoes, ripples, and beautiful consequences
Cell division, destruction and creation
Unspeakable paradise waiting to be explored
We are silent explosions of the invisible
Waiting to be discovered
We are way more than this
Why can't you.
Why can't I.
REMEMBER.
