4


I was introduced to my life path number the other day

4

The teacher

I guess this makes sense

People have always taken from me

Whatever they can get

 

I show them my mind

They steal my thoughts

Not plagiarism per say

They mostly steal my light after I’ve shown them the way

 

Still I protect them even when they don’t protect me

4

I split in two’s

Like the fish

My mind pulls me in different directions

Even when I resist

Two fish

One sea

One dreaming

One screaming

Trying to stay afloat

 

My life path has a number even though

I divide it

Two different lessons

One sea

I am four

Coasting along the ocean’s floor
