Solitude
Solitude
You will recognize your strength by
Your ability to
Endure solitude.
Gigantic stars dwell alone
At the edges of the universe.
Tiny and perplexed
They are condensed into galaxies.
Sequoya seeds choose open spaces
With a lot of sunlight, hurricanes and air.
Fern seeds retreat into rainforests.
An eagle has never been in need of
Meeting some other eagle.
Ants invented nations.
You will recognize your strength by
Your ability to
Cope with a moment,
For a moment is harder,
And more terrifying and longer
Then time and eternity.
