Generations (a poem)
I stand tall, proud,
find strength in who I am,
inspired by my ancestors.
Today, I realized. (thoughts)
Just when I think I’m at a point where I’m okay and can finally start moving forward, someone casually or incendiarily hurls those three words, burning me to the core.
When I look (a poem)
I have been thinking, a lot, the last two days—about who I want to be in this moment.
Core (a poem)
i am the words i speak, i’m the things i do, i’m not how i look, or the things i accrue. you try to define me with the simplest of words but i’m far beyond that, though you think it absurd.
A Not So Normal Day (a poem)
I awaken again, to the alarm bell ringing, hit snooze just one more time. Then close my eyes, let go once more, giving in to sleep sublime.
