KH Poem: Levitation

I wrote this poem after finally getting enough trophies in Re:Coded to unlock the secret ending. I was thinking about how the games might explain some things, and where certain people might be [and my opinions on that], but I was also thinking about one of the conversations in Re:Coded itself, and this came out.

There's a quote from Re:Coded in the notes at the end, but it's not that spoilery. It's more about sentiment than plot, anyway.

Levitation

It's not as simple
as you thought it was,
but not as complicated
as it could have been.
One does not
excuse the other,
but it's not necessary to
prevent,
unless that's what you're
looking for.

It's not a question of
what is or was,
but what could be and
what is
simultaneous.
The catalyst
is whatever you
want it to be,
but you have to
want.

There is a point where
time folds in on itself,
but to get there is
not calculated,
but
intuitive,
dragging and conductive.
Pull from
out,
and consume,
transduce in
alternating current,
but quietly.

Absorb in and
breathe out.
An inhale,
and then an
exhale,
each in turn.

Count slowly from
one to
infinity,
and then
back again.

Turn yourself
into yourself
once more.

Quotes:
"Every time it's me against some outside force, I give in and-"
"Riku, would you can it for a second? How many worlds have we been to now?"
"Um..."
"'Cause not long ago, the answer would've been 'one.' But now, you and me have been all kinds of places, and instead of dreaming about what's out there, we only have to remember it. We've got the whole universe inside of us. Just let that sink in for a second."
"...Pretty incredible."
"All those worlds inside you ,and you know what? You're still Riku. Doesn't matter how many 'outside forces' you have to face - because everything you touch makes you stronger. Always has.
"
