the universe

6 months of Benjamin

I never felt anything like you talking from inside me.

I feel you like me.
A part of me.
And the creation of me.
Deep in my center.
Where time doesn’t belong.
Everything is.
And always has been.

I feed you. I protect you. I build you.
Cell by cell.
I become you.

And I keep you in an uninterrupted hug.
Here warm.
My warmth.
My love.

And, being you,
I love myself more than I ever thought I could.

I conceive, contain and am
the creation.
The whole universe.
