ILLUMINATION

It feels like a light, burning at the very center of me, pulsing and expanding and pouring through every inch of my being

like some unstoppable force.

And when I smile, that's the 

light pushing through 

And when I cry, my tears act 

as tiny prisms, dripping with light, 

casting rainbows across my cheeks.

And when I laugh, that's the 

light spontaneously bursting within me,

erupting into the Universe to resonate

into the abyss.

That's what it feels like to be me, 

or at least, that's the best 

I can explain it.

I am a light, a fire, an explosion of joy.

I burn with love and life and 

the enchanting potential for more.

I wonder and wander through the world, 

smiling and laughing and loving.

I am a luminous being.  

And so are you, dear strangers and friends.

Trust me, I have sat quietly

back and observed.

I have watched you flash by in flames.
