The Nature Within You
Your soul is precious
Filled with the sounds of the forest
And the crashing of waves
The power of an ocean
Crashing through your veins
Break the mirror before you
For that guileful glass will never reflect
The beauty beneath your skin
There is nothing inside you
That is not galactic
Take the splintered glass
And release the galaxies within you
Pinpricks of light
Floating eternally upwards
Into the expanse of deepening darkness
That settles over the Earth
Spreading interstellar light
Upon a stagnant land
Behind your eyes, a sun rises
Warm amongst a barren waste
Skies of purple, pink, and blue
Are better than sitting in the dark
Flowers bloom from within
They reap beauty and sorrow
From the darkness in your heart
Swaying with your life force
As it flows through you
Powerful wind whips through your mind
While the peace of a summer rain
Softly calms your beating heart
With a lullaby of raindrops
You have nature in your heart
And galaxies in your veins
And for this, my dear
You are strong
