Mothership
I am the mothership.
I became everything and nothing I once was.
I exist beyond measure as an everyday thought.
I stand full of wonder and longing for more.
I am a traveller.
I glide in rough waters and weather the storms.
I stride up mountains and hold back the darkness.
I soar through the air and embrace the years.
I am cosmic.
I lift the sun and cradle the moon.
I break and I mend again and again.
I cry rivers of dreams and smile with the stars.
I am a mother.
A constant presence.
A watcher in awe.
All.
