I am quiet now
Resting my eyes and feet
Preparing to release
Words tomorrow
Words and stories
About journey
Children
Freedom
Justice
Words colored blue
Colored black
That look like me
Like the boy in the corner
Who never dared to dream
Like the mother
The sister
Always afraid
To live lives
Bigger than their necks
Scared to swim
I know that kind of fear
I will rest
Will close my eyes
Pray my soul to wake
Pray my mind to open
Rivers of syllables
Flow out
Fall down
Fly out in the
Air
Black ass poems. Black ass stories. Black ass art. Black ass life. Black ass love. Black ass hate. Black ass parenting. Black ass depression. Black ass mania. And other stuff too.
This is amazing; heartfelt and touching Jaha. Let the river of syllables keep flowing.
