What is time but an infinite roar of everything after
And everything before
I read the first life enabled to form
On the planet was teeming in the sea
I believe our love was burning with it
Swimming with the fish and flailing in the waves
Then it was covered in dirt
Clawing for the reach of the stars
It grew through a rock
And it caught itself on a branch
A caterpillar begging for wings
It flew to to the west
And landed by the Pacific
The gold drip of this sun
Melting onto the sands,
The shadows of the diamonds that held
Themselves in the sky
I think I did understand to love you
Even before the manifestation of the moon
In some sort of light
I knew it was you
My name is Lauren Childs, and I'm a poet based in both Wyoming and Los Angeles. I find my power in self-expression and the nobility of truth, which I celebrate in my work. As a proud Latina and member of the LGBTQ+ community, my poetry celebrates the interconnectedness of all things, inspired by my personal experiences and desire to explore the complexities of identity, spirituality, and our relationship with the world around us.
