The Complete World

The Complete World

A Poem by I Am Svetlana

The words of the fallen

Have risen above the darkness.

Light is dim as the flame burns.

The air is silent.

No wind blows from the west

Nor from the east or south.

Not a soul speaks.

The world is alive.

Bringing you up from your kneess

Off the dirt which you have fallen.

You are stronger now

The world is yours to keep.

It is your world

But you cannot control it.

You can't tame it.

The world is the world.

It spins how it can

So we can live each day.

The world is ours

But we are the ones who complete it.
