who are we at our core

I'd invite you to know me
     it's the impossible ask
  though I know what I'm not
    should I make any list 
        then I feel I fail
  at my core I'm a galaxy
   things swirl
     shoot out of sight
light is emitted
     I don't know if the source went out
   but it still shines 
                  there's too much to know
       I'm not me, I'm all the befores
     there's a touch of all the somewheres
             the spin offs of the parallel
   you hear it all on the static 
     or in the quiet
       the knowledge seeps 
   from somewhere
there's no above and below 
       it's sideways
          then there's stillness, the now
 I can't deny I'm here
    looking out, trying to calculate
      without the right kit

who am I at my core?

   it's a question with one word answers:
           good
    flawed
     different
          if you wrap those elements together
there's something
          that needs confidence to thrive
   subdued, resting
               like an event that didn't happen 

what it all doesn't need is a label
     because it and you and me
   is beyond your comprehension
           and mine
