crystallize


a white sage, smudge smoke halo

is over something more divine

than all the angels on my shelf,

shedding their wings to bring the peace

i seek to unearth from myself,

 

all our energies are intertwined

in meditation to align and balance 

when i feel i’ve lost my grip,

hands tight around labradorite

as i’m starting on my trip

 

as above, so below; how deep can you

go ‘til your reflection stares back someone new,

who has amethyst within their veins,

quartz clustered in their marrow,

filled with secrets that the world cannot restrain

 

what i uproot from my subconscious

crystallizes in my hands

and its energies diffuse through me

in shared understanding that we

create our own beauty
