don't be afraid to let your body die
to transform
into a new place to live
to grow
to make art
to be a home
to know peace
‎to live to love to grow old

I am too full of myself
but what else is there
for me to be full of
other than the person I am
the person Ive become
the will to keep surviving
an empty cage
cowering with shaking hands and my fingers in mine ears
childhood horror hide and go
