You Is Love

My ignorance shows,
before words take flight.

I wish I wasn't priveledged enough to fight the good fight.

I'll never know what it means to be a black man,
I'll never feel the pains of being a trans man or woman. 

All I can do and say is live life authentically and put love, respect, and understanding before my own needs.

We live in a selfish environment.

It's getting much more closed off, cold, and grey.

It can be hard to remember the feel of a sunbeam bouncing off your skin when the darkness and cold engulfs you.

You don't always see a rainbow reflected after a storm.

Kindness is an attribute I'm keen on recovering.

Meditation, strength, and growth is what we all need.

To those I offended or forgot,
know that you're represented.

You are loved,
you are powerful,
you are you.
