A Poem from when I was young (er)...

I want to be beautiful
I want to be love
I want to be
Pain
And bottomless sensation

I shall dance in the wilderness
Swaying with the trees
Crying through the riverbed
Making honey with the bees

I am goddess of divinity
Mother of the sea
Sleeping with the thunder gods
Floating on the breeze

I can hear the ancients calling
I can feel them take my hand
I can see the waters parting
I can taste the moon-kissed sand

I am leaving
For a people
Not completely my own
I may not return today
Nor ever ever more...

So much better than I wrote as a teenager.

These lines are breathtaking:
I want to be
Pain
And bottomless sensation
