unfold

I breathe to random strings of air

    an undercurrent

    I imagined folding a piece of paper, writing "(Name), I love you,

           and this is my truth"

and I will have it offered to whoever that matters


My body, telling me stories

naming a pull

drinking in it all

performative or otherwise


I name it, my truth

    including the grieve that is living in my body


I no longer want to live in a constructed oblivion 

    my prayers held close to my heart, regardless it being heard or not

    my truth will always stay with me,

    even if I'm misunderstood

    even if I'm wounded 

I will not retaliate, same as what we talked about the other day


I breathe to random strings of air

    an undercurrent

    buried in a hum, a buzz


I then started to sing

    and move 

    freely
