Because,
I am fearless,
you call it careless.
I am going to stay
without your caress,
which would at this moment
only
serve to stop my
never ending march
to that some where
I am heading to.
Mi alma se esta abriendo,
mis sueños y mis palabras corriendo ,
como un rio descontrolado.
My voice is sounding off like brass notes.
I am growing in stature,
sitting in the chair across the table,
your eyes down on the floor
and I am shelling off whatever the fuck was holding me back
holding me down
I am still connected to this sacred ground.
My steps are getting louder with each word.
blooming boldly,
peacock feathers and dahlia petals unfurling open
to the sun
and you
want to stay in the shadows
but I cannot quiet down,
I can no longer pretend you are too cool to walk with me,
you are afraid to say
you don't want me,
you are afraid to say
you do want me.
I am supposed to be coy and demure to be beautiful
but their is nothing coy and demure about the truth of things.
The truth is plain, awkward and messy
and I have never been much of a picture perfect anything
except for this
bad ass picture perfect
me.
