Baby on a roof
You never took up space,
And raged only in private.
I know, I was there.
I heard your natural voice
Before it was edited and rebranded.
But you've always been magnificent.
Back then your innocence was
hazardous to your health.
I was there.
I loved you enough to hide you.
I held closed your wounds in
The quiet embrace of the closet.
You're older now,
Outpacing the daydreams
that kept you alive.
Brandishing a loose razor
To cut only through the dogma.
You held on to life then,
And you hold all the power now.
I am there.
