Holding Ourselves Up To Another Kind of Freedom
We cannot stare too deep
into the games we're playing.
We cannot stand too close
to the dragons they're slaying.
We erase markings of scars
that have haunted in a
mighty river of truth
'Cause we are
vibing hearts
connecting minds
exchanging words
sharing the shine
and one day,
we will know
truly know how
beautiful
and safe it
is to be
loved
