Poem №040
Wonder to the edge of hope
throw yourself into the space
where everything you thought you knew
meets everything you never dared say out loud
Let yourself imagine
the unimaginable
Paint the sky with the
vivid colors of your dreams
Watch your world
turn upside down
Face the fear
of letting go
breaking down
cracking open
no return
He said I contain multitudes
Now look at you
on the edge of hope
larger than life
expanding in a whole new way
Note: The line “He said you contain multitudes” refers to Walt Whitman’s poem Song of Myself, which reads:
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)
