The Microcosm of You

Your essence swirls about

Symbols only you could decipher

A cypher undecodable to the untrained eye

The minute relics of an entire lifetime

Wrapped up into one moment

Suspended in thin air

Circulating about you in the aether

Organizing to actualize

The microcosm of you

Meaning overflows

Easily floods your eyes

It’s all so beautiful, and dark, and incredible

It always has been

It always will be

Like a drop in a still pond

Your essence emanates outwards

It precedes you

Just as

It awaits you

Entangling with other auras

Searching for recognition

Where the stars align

The planets, the sun, the sky itself

All revolve around you

How could they not

Just look at you

The likes of you

The microcosm of you

All too incredible

Inconceivable, unbelievable

Embedded in your own gravitational pull

Gears start to turn

As wheels spin out beneath you

Keep turning the screw

In pursuit of the quest

Seeking treasure

Only to find

You are it

Words fall short to describe

The whirlpool universe

The macrocosmic cosmos

The heavenly bodies

That orbit around and gravitate to

The microcosm of you

In synchronistic coexistence

All your parts and pieces

Everything that ever contributed to

The microcosm of you

Feel the reverie of

The impression you leave on the atmosphere

It’s immaculate conception

The sweetest perception

Imprinted in space and time

Try to grasp it

But it’s all smoke and mirrors

To recollect in retrospect

The microcosm of you

Is

Universal creation

Angelic destruction

Fire and ice

And everything nice

Sublime love

Everything from above

Colliding in elemental integration

Divine navigation

Constructing, inventing

The microcosm of you

In real time

Over and over again

For a lifetime

For an eternity

For as long as the stars hang on the firmament

So will your supernovas

In arcane afterglow

Radiant luminosity

At ever-increasing velocity

Revolve around

The microcosm of you
