I am unafraid tonight To write and sign my real name. To like what I read which is almost everything here For the sake, for the pain, for the unashamed, for just Celebrating those who breathe life for the just Trying. I am unafraid tonight To disclose that I live as an Agonist In a city that ghost taps on my windows, ( thank you Ilion gray for that), When the quiet is pockmarked by so many crying the Loudest tears. I am unafraid tonight To express my dissatisfaction with you. I am unafraid tonight To express the miracle of those across oceans, And across town, Welcoming me into their hearts and wonder Where else do the wayfarers gather I am I am unafraid tonight To curry your favor, Despise your silence Expose corners of me That should be buried Before my body later follows I am unafraid tonight To use or abuse punctuation For their are spaces and , Between us that can and cannot be closed But I am compelled to try to narrow the differences For I am unafraid tonight Tomorrow, we shall see, If the shale within can yet be fractured, Brought to the surface To be consumed, Or the fractures spread Destructing the whole. But tonight, I am unafraid.

I am unafraid tonight
I am unafraid tonight To write and sign my real name. To like what I read which is almost everything here For the sake, for the pain, for the unashamed, for just Celebrating those who breathe life for the just Trying. I am unafraid tonight To disclose that I live as an Agonist In a city that ghost taps on my windows, ( thank you Ilion gray for that), When the quiet is pockmarked by so many crying the Loudest tears. I am unafraid tonight To express my dissatisfaction with you. I am unafraid tonight To express the miracle of those across oceans, And across town, Welcoming me into their hearts and wonder Where else do the wayfarers gather I am I am unafraid tonight To curry your favor, Despise your silence Expose corners of me That should be buried Before my body later follows I am unafraid tonight To use or abuse punctuation For their are spaces and , Between us that can and cannot be closed But I am compelled to try to narrow the differences For I am unafraid tonight Tomorrow, we shall see, If the shale within can yet be fractured, Brought to the surface To be consumed, Or the fractures spread Destructing the whole. But tonight, I am unafraid.
For Marshall and Ilion, near and far. The ghost tapping heard, and saving me. Thank you.
