I didn’t want to sunder us.
I didn’t.
I looked into the mirror
The dead eyes reflected back.
Happiness.
Love.
It had all been drained from my soul.
So, I left.
I look now into the mirror.
I see happiness.
Love.
Life.
I didn’t want to sunder us.
I had to.
To save my life.

I allowed his wishes to eclipse my soul.
My light was blocked.
When my light tried to peak through, it was shattered by the darkness.
One day I had enough.
I made my light push through.
Blinding him in surprise.
I found my light.
Nobody will eclipse my soul once more.

I look out my window.
The wintery gloom sticks to everything.
So recently the colors of fall were vibrant.
The summer heat had just cooled.
I know soon the budding of spring will happen.
But the gloom of winter settles deep into the soul.
Clouding the dawn of spring.

The ball diamond does fireworks.
As a child we watched them ignite.
Played with the children that came out to play.
Now we listen for the booms.
The game is over.
When the cemetary comes alive.
The ghosts tell stories of their lives.
And the children come out to play.

I found comfort in routine.
Then my world shattered.
One of the stars in my life was gone.
My orbit thrown.
Heard words of sympathy.
They offered no true comfort.
My life changed.
For years I chased numbness.
Until one night I got true comfort.
I could finally breathe.

The fact I gave you my heart makes me appalled
You were supposed to heal all
But you were nothing but a close call
You shall always be in my heart
Even when they roll me out on a cart
We may always be apart
But honey our love was an #art

It had to be a coincidence.
No way did they play with a spirit board and a demon came through.
A child’s game.
But the eyes.
Red as blood.
Our friend was no longer human.
I locked eyes with the demon.
Within the eyes I saw hell.
Within the eyes I saw my damnation…

I look at a picture of myself.
Only 2 years old.
The smile forced.
My eyes dull.
Nobody knew.
2 years of growth.
I look in the mirror.
A confidence came back.
My smile bright.
Eyes full of life.
I look at the photo.
I threw it in a shoe box.
Farewell to that old me.

To be who I am was once illegal.
People before me fought for my rights.
I made my voice heard for equal rights.
I make my voice heard against the hate.
I will continue to fight against hate.
So, the next generations don’t have to hide…
Or live in fear of hate.
