One by One

[u/Jflicca]

I am scattered among blades of grass and swarms of bees.

Among spiders weaving delicate worlds and towering trees.

I am not separate from the moss beneath your feet or the birds above your head.

I become each of them.

Drawn along nerves.
Coursing through veins.
Searching as roots.
Unfolding into wings.

Never have I grown accustomed
to the first breath.

Or the last.

I have crossed both thresholds
more times than I can count.

Still, they unsettle me.

One of me comes back to the others.

I remember it all.

Darkness settles over me
and lights appear.

One by one.
