republish FB note, inspired by Rihanna’s ‘The Only Girl in the World’ — 24 December 2010
delve deep into the soul of her
embody the seasons the wind and the waves
to become everything to everyone
the tree to shade
the water to quench
the breeze to cool
the fire to burn
the love to nurture
the pool of calm
but tonight
one by one she sheds her skins
she is now transparent
light shines through her like water
the beat sways her
the melody drips and cascades all round her being
tonight she dances
tonight she is queen
she forgets
to remember
to know she is still there
alive.
