Solar system within by Cynthia van Golen
This process
of self-knowing
self-healing
self-discovery
Feels like the universe inside
shattering my being
fragmenting
the opposite of a black hole
BIG BANG
Sun pulling me out
Make friends
Be social
Create art, create music
Moon dragging me in
Softly crying
Whispers
Head under pillows, comfort
The planets
All off orbit
Retrograde what??
Crashing
Learn more says Mercury
Love more says Venus
Run more says Mars
Explore more says Jupiter
Work harder says Saturn
A cacophony
Splitting m/e apart
I can’t
I can’t
I’ve lost myself
