You Are The Goddess – I Will Be What I Can


You are the goddess of your calm and storm.
You deserve the world gilded:
yet you don’t want the treasure
for you possess more in value;Β it’s all within you!
Great spirit, greater than all the tyrants of history
have ever thieved from their own

That is to say, goddess you are a giver.
You will give until the infinite river runs dry,
and that is eternal for your nature will never lie.
– IV

Yeah maybe you’ll never see her again, but let me ask you this…
When life gets busy how often do you remember to look up at the sky?
How often are you reminded that you are a part of it all? Exactly.
You forget, and just as easily as the stars fade from your sight;
So does this.

Always though, regardless of how long it takes, we come back to the stars.
We look up at some point and think, “Damn, sure is beautiful.”
You don’t cry because you look up at the stars. You smile.
You smile hard. Then you go back to living. It’s beautiful – We’re always the stars.

  11. That was beautiful ^^ I sometimes look up at the sky and somehow feel much relieved from any pressure. It’s like, I feel so small yet connected to everything else in this universe. I’m not alone. We are the stars πŸ˜‰

  14. Thank you for liking “Night Beauty.” I also find stars to be beautiful and inspirational. I am filled with awe when I think about how long they have been circling the universe and how they will still be up in the night sky long after I am gone from this world.
