rust and stardust

All we are is stars & everything in between
the whole universe in an atom
& here we are walking around made of many.

Can you stand on the ledge of everything & feel lucky?
Infinite possibilities lie before you.
And here you are! Here! Now!

Oh how the stars conspire
oh how they shine!
On my worst days, I am still composed of stardust.

The universe dances around endlessly.
She twirls and sashays, glimmering and gleaning.
I am somehow the middle, the end, and the beginning.

She is me and I am her
and yet, somehow, there is still you.
It all folds and flows and falls into place.

“Find beauty in the simple things”
but darling, we’re all so complex
why reduce our elegance to simplicity?

On the days when the universe feels overwhelming
like she could swallow you whole
just remember, that you are the beach and the wave.
