I’ve seen glimpses of myself
And to me comes the staggering truth
that I myself am Staggering
So Much
Am I
So Full
I am
As a queen in flowing garments
in heels I tower over crowds
My countenance is Bright
My face though Humble, covers a Bold spirit with bold opinions and strong Belief
I’m strong and Gentle
but the heart within me still fears
still thinks it sits within a small chest
next to small arms
But no
The truth is I am Large
Large enough to Rule my world
And take my throne among the Greats
Everyone who accepts their Crown
draws me Come and Reign

I was born on the outside
raised by ones who some might call commoners
But a different song sang through their blood
I was born as an outcast
rescued from the cruel
I was taught adoption is a way of life
For those cradled in the arms of the world
Drink all they want from her breast
They do not ask for my love
It is only the outcasts
who see my open arms as a balmy haven
and come to rest
Away from Windy earth for a moment
Come
And I will love You
You need only to ask
You need only to stay
And I will share my bread with you
a meal for one
becomes more when stretched for two

it’s so typical of me
and you
to crave love from the ones who wouldn’t notice us
normally
Love from the nearby, similar people
Feels like it comes too naturally
So I long for a love I couldn’t possibly take for granted

I’m in your sights
Always
and not a single part of me goes unloved
