pants
it all begins and ends with thread
just when one thread unravels the
enormity of the situation depends
on exactly where
one day i
will sew up the rip
in my crotch of those blue jeans
that left me open to the public
on main street and figure
out why I kept
tugging
away at that
one
string
in the first
place

I am stuck inside the skeleton
Of what we call our home
Trying to mend these brittle bones
But they will crumble nonetheless
From all the pollution
We have consumed.

Rotting flesh and a weak heartbeat
Kiss the lips of the skulls teeth
Say goodbye to our dying world.

Like a spotlight on my soul
You enhance me, make me feel whole
Brightening my world
My happiness your only goal

Because of you I'm finally seen, heard and recognized for the beauty that I didn't know was inside of me
Emotions I didn't even know I could feel have been blossoming throughout my body

This spotlight may have finally made everyone see, but it's what it's done to me
It's shown me you and that is a blessing
