solitude
is a wonderful
and curious thing

when i am alone
for much too long
and my own company
is all i’ve kept

my sense of self
expands beyond
the boundaries of my body

and in that moment
i do not know
where i begin or where i end

i am one with the fabric
of the universe

that stitches the stars together
in bewitching constellations

in that moment
i am infinite



what an equally
breathtaking and terrifying
thought.
