I strip myself of these tattered clothes,
And seek refuge in you.

Breathing out this aged agony,
For in your breath I am anew.

I refuse to rot with the moon,
For, I've met the sun.

He introduced me to my imperfections,
and the beauty held within them.

So, instead of rotting,
I flourish.

It will never be over soon,
For, I am eternal when I'm with you.

earnestly pray
for what your heart wants
and patiently wait
for it to be granted

I think too many people punish others for their words
Without thinking about why they were said

in the land
of mist

we are all lost
holding hands

for warmth
we don’t know

each other
and we don’t

need to
it is enough

to be together
in the land

of mist

She was Saturn,
The epitome of unique;
He was Jupiter,
The beast to her ethereal beauty.

She was Saturn,
Clothed in mystique;
He was Jupiter,
Clothed in shock and cruelty.

R. A. Tyndall

you are your skin
your skin is good skin
my brothers, no one should be scared to raise you
your skin is good skin

black
black
each for times you were hurt
that’s all they saw

you are your skin
your skin is good skin
Ahmaud Arbery
