Ephemeral Infinity

And that tranquil feeling didn’t leave
This time of chaos
It stayed
On my chest
Holding my hand from inside, telling me I was 
Alright
even if bleeding
No smiles
But no tears
No fake hope
But no flaky belief
I transform any crystalized moment
Of swallowed tears
Agony and forceful sanity
In flowers blooming from my heart
Seeing more than any heart has ever asked for,
But when I saw that broken mirror giving me infinite perspectives
My curious sight forgot to weep
As that vision opened one million universes for me
A jolt
Of light
It was absurd in form of symphony
I finally got the mystery I came here one million lives 
Of irony
To see
and now I can see

It’s like looking at myself somehow
Feels my heart with bliss
Compassion that one can give to oneself
Is more irradiant and powerful
If honest
As it extends to anyone who can breath
I cannot hate my enemies
And I also can’t feel fear
I won’t deliberately hold their hands
But I am not sure I can
Ferociously let go
If they hold me asking for mercy
I know I look fragile
Yet like a bull
Who steps so soft
That feet don’t crush even a field of daisies
I love life
I made through here
We all got cuts
Blood
Sadness inside
but nothing lasts forever
and the ephemeral moment is so full of infinity
that makes me eternally believe
I still leak more than I absorb
But I have compassion for this baby
Who is just learning how to breath
