Becoming Fathomless!

looking back at the path 
I have walked,
the turns and detours
my life has taken, I realize
I have been flowing 
like a river
sometimes stuck 
sometimes still
but always 
dancing to the tunes 
of an undercurrent 
deep within my soul
the whispers of spirit
that make me, shape me
take me where
I must go.

Today I stand tall
humbled and surprised 
by all that 
I have become
and also I stand still
proud and terrified of
all that I am yet to be

Don't I or you dare
put my becoming
into a box
I am not ‘one’ thing, 
I am many, 
myriad glimmering facets of mine 
some still left to shine 
I can clearly see I am infused 
with potential
and the possibilities are
fucking fathomless

I hear, I say, I scream
just feel, just go
where the joy is
follow the divine whispers 
go with fear, with doubt
into the unknown
fail hard, step scared, 
but fail and step forward
because my becoming
is such a thrilling ride 
nothing can replace
this eternal taste 
this playful and poignant
cosmic treasure hunt 
that starts the instant I learn 
to listen, leap and flow
