Small

I refuse to languish in obscurity
hiding parts of my personality.
As a target I stood. 

Verity will always light up the dark.
A white lightning rod, an electric spark
as what’s solid is viewed. 

I am the woman with oneiric eyes,
the one who’s focus is the far off prize. 
No nonsense attitude.

Shrinking yourself back into a bubble, 
sounds to me like a whole lot of trouble. 
Small is never selfhood.
