Be you rejected
Chastised or despised, first smile
Then comfort your foes

Each and every time
I’m sure I saw a rainbow
Not beyond our grasp
Omnipresent ache
Your absence upon my eyes
My hope you’ll return
Afire, awaiting
Take a step back and come back
To chaos promised
All we’ve ever built
You recall you’ve done alone
Selfish memory
My background’s back there.
And, to my future, hear this:
The present’s what’s mine!
I cannot care, Love
Color Me cruel, and recall
You wished my demise
I counted twelve notes
I thought of honest fingers
I was Endless Love
We’re together now,
Me & Me. A sisterhood.
I celebrate this.
A shapeshifter no
Change for their crazed, changing minds
I can not, will not
