blather
to_my_heart
unhinged i know i have asked you to hide. for years, i have whispered in the dark


just wait
maybe_later



remember what happened the last time?

so i hid you
thinking that it would protect you
but instead
i suffocated you
i disconnected you from my body
from my voice
because being whole
and connected
was how they hurt us

(some of them sneered at this pain
when i tried to use my voice
when i_pleaded
when i tried to set boundaries)


but
it isn't us with the problem


the world needs
heart warriors
light


let's rekindle
reconnect
rename
