four gems from nayyirah waheed

if you show
someone the sun in your bones
and they reject you
you must remember.
they hurt themselves this very same way.

--- unable

///////////////////////////

if we must
both
be right.
we will
lose
each other.

---exile

///////////////////////////

there
are
feelings.
you haven't felt yet.
give them time.
they are almost here.

---fresh

///////////////////////////

even if you are a small forest surviving off of
moon alone.
your light is extraordinary.

---reminder
