You Are A Force Of Nature
By Nikita Gill
The fuel that runs this spirit,
this soul,
is not easy to understand.
It is made of fire
and it is made of water.
It is made of the kind of darkness
that will swallow entire stars.
But it is also made
of the cold sea waves
that soothe.
It is wild too,
as wild as the birds
and wolves
that live in the forest.
And the way it flies
when we experience true happiness,
true freedom
it is made of the wind too.
It is star sent,
and from within the earth’s core
all at the same time.
It is from the sky
and from the land,
it has lived before,
and it is made of light.
We try to classify ourselves
into words,
into labels,
but how do you define
something as eternal,
as huge as your body, your spirit and brain
when it is an entire universe
in and of itself?
