Sharon Nyambowo Poet Prose Poetry

What the universe tells me through you

You are the universe's way,
Of giving me a comforting hug, 
Of telling me it is alright my child,
Of telling me it is alright to be excited about the world again,
Of telling me no matter what you face out there, 
Explore and come back into my arms.

It tells me you are infinitely and unconditionally loved
That you are provided for 
That what I ask is never too much, 
That I can definitely ask for so much more.
That I can definitely love in all my purity and abundance,
And that is not such a scary thing.

You have become the destination of a place I didn't know I was heading towards
One day you were just there 
And after that you have always been just here
Your love and care are not things I earned
For I didn't find you by merit
Neither did I charm my way into your embrace
Me as I was was exactly what I needed to be

For the first time the lesson wasn't someone
The lesson was me
The universe gave me a mirror 
It made me see who I was and what I could become
It made me see infinite worlds and dreams 
Dreams and fantasies, seas, oceans, realities, potentials
The things I had buried deep within
Things I didn't know existed
Things I don't know the origins of

And not as a harsh lesson
But just to see I am worth a whole lot more 
Much more than my mind could ever comprehend 
And that is alright
To be me as I am
The universe has given me healing through you.
