I think they want to keep it a secret

I don’t think they want you to know

that the
sun rises
and
sets in your soul

you are the light I have
always wanted
and the
warmth from the cold

the first time we met
you looked at me
and I swear
I saw the milky way
floating on your
iris
and I haven’t stopped
loving the sky ever since

they don’t want you to know
that God hid prophecies in your heart
I heard them once when
I laid on your chest

you make me want to write
scripture

they never wanted you to know
that evil trembles
with every step that
you take

you put one foot in front of the other
and it sounds like
our ancestors banging drums
made out of tree stumps

you were never supposed to know

that power is in your lips
everything you speak
is

you, are
the universe- love

can you not see it, when you look in the mirror?

I feel my earth shatter
when you question yourself
because they should have told you

that you are everything

capable of anything

and everything is you
