I am Everything.

I am the Light.

I guide

I heal

I resurrect

Shut the darkness out

Bring peace forth

Bathe the Cosmos in Lambency.

I am the River.

I flow

I rush

I surge

Cascade down the cliffs of Heaven

In a veil of shimmering blue

Spray the Cosmos in Clarity.

I am the Inferno.

I burn

I smolder

I glow

Fill the landscape with dashing orange light

Dance with me while the flames burn bright

Engulf the Cosmos in Fervency.

I am the Storm.

I strike

I electrify

I bellow

Light the sky as it splits in two

Beat the drum with every rupture

Strike the Cosmos with Valor.

I am Love.

I make joy

I make passion

I make sorrow

Chime the bells of laughter and happiness

Then twist the hearts until they are shrouded in woe

Envelope the Cosmos in Intimacy.

I am the Wind.

I blow

I sweep

I whirl

Pound against the Earth

Batter it with invisible force

Blast the Cosmos with a Tempest.

I am the Sea.

I engulf

I batter

I lash

Wave to the Heavens

Then crash down on the Earth's surface

Smite the Cosmos with Puissance.

I am Time.

I see

I predict

I am forever

Hear the ticking of the ticking clock

Come along; I wait for no one

Direct the Cosmos for Eternity.

I am Revolution.

I begin

I end

I begin again

Swing down the Scythe of Obliteration

Bring the Earth to its eternal rest

Release the Cosmos with Quietus

I am the Future.

What is to come

What has to come

What shall never be

Stand for fate as life goes on

Or live in the world of dreams

Bestow the Cosmos with Destiny.

I am Nature.

I grow

I bloom

I flourish

Breathe sentience to the barren wasteland

New life, new beginnings, new creation

Gift the Cosmos with Viability.

I am the Mind.

I think

I learn

I know

Ask the questions meant to be asked

Answer the questions never pondered before

Teach the Cosmos your Knowledge.

I am Strength.

I rise

I protect

I fight

Lift the weight of hardship

Be the champion of spirit

Award the Cosmos with Fortitude.

I am Freedom.

I rebel

I release

I unchain

If one tames the wild

Then free it first

Liberate the Cosmos with Disenthrallment.

I am the Cosmos.

I see everything

I feel everything

I give everything

I receive everything

I sense everything

I am Everything.

Author's Note: So this is my first Sailor Moon poem. Each stanza stands for a different Senshi. In case you couldn't tell which one's which, this is the order: Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Saturn, Chibi Moon, Ceres, Pallas, Juno, Vesta, and Cosmos. Personally I like Venus' and Mars' stanzas best.

If you're reading my SM/HP crossover fic 'To Protect the Future', then I'm happy to let you know that Chapter Four is nearly finished, and to make up for all that time you had to wait for it, it's nearly twice as long as the other chapters! Maybe even more than that once I'm finished with it.

So reviews, anyone? Comments? Critique? Please no flames, though!
