That’s Life, Rose Said
written with Diana Remigio
let’s begin in black
& it was in the silence that you found
your voice
your voice
echoing
to scream
shout
burst at mountains that should have never formed
to feel the safety of your void
for there was never a home
no home to form
you are alone in this wasteland
you drew it yourself
torn in time, but sprinkled amongst your days
impossible
lost
only to find a lover whom is nothing like your past
wake up!
& so let’s end with white
