you contain galaxies

i will 
remember the moments
that i saw the real you 
blue eyes
present 
intense and unafraid
your fear of the future 
of the shifting tides
that remind you 
that you are shifting, changing 
barely containing 
this heavy, hovering anger 

i see you 
i see the beautiful, magnificent boy
that is you 
you contain multitudes 
you contain galaxies 
mountains and seas 
storms and gardens 
they seem to contradict 
they seem to hurt everyone 
as they come in waves
but you’re not meant to hurt 
you’re not meant to contain 
you’re meant to channel
all of this energy 
love and emotion
anger and pain 
it’ll turn into music
it’ll turn into pain
life won’t contain you 
life won’t betray 
love won’t control you 
love won’t restrain
