Gray
The land of nowhere
Found tiptoeing
Between
Great heavy shadows
Holding hostage
Fearful what if’s
And the light
Bare naked brightness
Secrets once
Owned in terror
No more
Have power
Release
Peace
Freedom
Life

The breeze
Carried
My ancestor’s prayers
Eternal words of
Blessing
Breathed in
My first infant cry
Twined
With my DNA
We are forever one

Studying myself
From a view
Of self-peace

Very little
Of myself
Have I shared
With you
In fact
I’ve even kept
Myself from myself
Some days I’ve
Felt so betrayed
So overlooked
But,
My thought’s
Have been terribly misinformed
Thinking I should be seen
When I’ve barely shone
What light
Did I give
You to follow?
You can’t behold
A woman
Who’s dimmed
Her spirit
To obscure dusk
Naturally,
She’s nowhere
To be found

There’s layers to my depths
And depths to my layers
Arrangements of silence, sounds, letters, words
Building, stacking, mounting
One pause, one syllable, one moment at a time
Spinning out from
My soul’s innermost core
Bursting into life
The moment they touch air
Traveling through galaxies
Beyond the universe
Beyond time

You will tell everyone
How you prayed
And how I answered
Love,
God

Look!
You see?
When you serve me
I will put you in places
You could not otherwise go
I will place you
In palaces you can’t afford
