Fabric

The sheer magnitude of what hung in suspension above me

The faint glimpses of the milky way galaxy iridescent and lovely

Desert sand the bed I longed for all this time

Trapped in awe I feel the stars shine

Down onto my skin caked with dust from whipping winds

Eyes set to what feels like heaven begging to be let in

Unaware I'm engulfed in it from the dust to silt to the limestone that warms my weathered soul

I can't fathom what holds

These stars above me immersed in their glory

Finally a part of all that lies before me

Never more at home than I am at this instant

Finally seeing I'm not looking at the fabric of the universe but rather I'm woven in it
