I am so afraid
to leave

the only place I know

to let you
lead me to the light

The darkness is my home

I do not want to cause offense

I do not wish to harm

I do not want to hurt your feelings

Or to cause alarm


I do not want to challenge you

Or to make you feel small


I know that you

Don't want me to

Say anything at all


And so I've learned to blunt my tongue

To mitigate my speech

To stretch the space between the lines

As far as it can reach


I censor myself

Without thinking

Every single day


And if I could speak freely

I don't know what I would say

We are God

We are manifestations of God

We are physical manifestations of God

There are infinite numbers

Of infinite God


They are One


Infinite

The reflections of One


Every law

Every force

And reaction is God


Every wave

Every form

And attraction is God


Every mind

Every soul

Every action is God


And the sky is the infinite face of our God


We are God

Only God

We are all the same God

We are all the same and it is all the same God


We are waves in the mind

Of an infinite God


Waves

And fractals

And spheres are the shape of our God


Leading infinitely to an ultimate God

To an infinite regress of infinite God


We are God

We are all

We are all that we are

All in all


We are All

And we are only

God

I have come untethered
like a feather
in the sky

I cannot stay forever
but wherever
will I fly?

the rivers
come together

where the heavens
meet the sea

at the mercy of the weather
for one moment
I am free

spring snows
winter's final throes
fall like feathers
quietly

soft and white
drift from the sky
heaven is a cherry tree

I am beautiful
I have my own unique face
no one is like me

I am terrible
I do things that no one should
no one is like me

I am all alone
no one understands my mind
no one is like me

I am powerful
I can influence the world
no one is like me

oh the irony
realizing these are the things
everyone believes

build a bridge
empathy can walk across
and into your soul
