inspired

that  raw grandeur inside of her

has triggered a movement in my soul

words flow like hot lava

searing everything they pass over

my rocky insides are oozing out flame

spitting in a volcanic dance

melting and reforming my skin

leaving a layer of pumice

how quickly you inspire me

how quickly you remind me who i am

with your celestial words and twiggy exterior

with your pounding, shaking voice

how you reclaim power in vulnerability

a skill i am still struggling to master

how you are undoubtedly an intellect

but still a graceful forest maiden

a piece of earth sculpted and hardened over

stretched with hard skin and piling hair

how i wish to have an inch

of the mind you posses

of the passion you exert

how i long to be such an enigmatic soul
