An Unnamed Journey Slight Change
I sense it is impossible to rhyme
in this journey and that even
with a poem searching for words
something is lost
Is it found in the breath
slowly with the slightest force
should we name it the Force
or is it a lightness that joins
with the smallest molecules
atoms is that what I am
and you and the us
anything else if false is dust
am I trying to form something that
cannot be formed or is the Form
something we cannot know
with its infinite reach
A form that is what the
Universe is and we are of
that form, briefly solid but unending
I feel at times a cold heaviness
in my chest and I am frightened
But if I inhale and see the stars
in the silence for that instance
forever seems real and unending
and a Force that we experience
as we search even pray for
as we try to define ourselves
and the Infinite that is forever
