Roaring tides
Extend to the edge of everything that’s mine
The sun still shines upon what I can’t see
But now the moon is looming over me
Counting the colors in the oceansky
They number greater than I could describe
Sifting through words and tones to capture it
But nothing’s detailed like the real shit
and none of me is like it
My body is nothing, My body is nothing
My body is nothing, My body is nothing more significant than a single drop
I am nothing, I am nothing
Who am I
if I don’t let them characterize me by
Constructs that overlay transparency
Projected over my identity
But staying radically indifferent
to validating my existence
defines my energy as excellent
devine, powerful and feminine
The only thing that makes sense
My body is nothing, My body is nothing
My body is nothing, My body is nothing more significant than a single drop
Or everything at once
I can only see a fraction of it
There isn’t anything that matters less
It’s all the same, it’s all the same

Laughing horses never change
Fancy living sibling souls
Who am I now
Singer cuties never change
Chosen sister all of time
Who am I now
What can I tell myself

Every time I’m disappointed
When I look into his eyes
And I show him vulnerability
Like this has never happened before
And he slides across the counter to me
A set of keys that he keeps hidden
That open up the secret compartments
That even he hasn’t seen inside of yet
It’s all in his nature

Everyone I know can see
Imposter syndrome falling out of me
Am I aware of the visibility of the extent?
My mind can’t take much more
Of the pressure to do everything now
Still she’ll wax poetic
That all of this noisem
Is just for overwhelming herself
These figures trust me
And I can’t seem to figure it out
Cause I’m stuck in limbo
Spiraling downward to the top forever
Everyone I know can see
Imposter syndrome falling out of me
Am I aware of the visibility of the extent?
So what can I tell myself?
Who am I now

My beautiful friend
She told me I’m a prism
But the glow of my skin
is not what it used to be
When I was a child I was made to feel broken
I’m powerful now
as I am a woman
And as naturally
The strange boy would turn out to be
When I catch myself in the mirror I cry
Now I catch the light
Emanated by the warmth of
My beautiful friends
who validate existence
I never thought it would be much to ask
I can cry now
Not like before, it feels right now
All of my power I can feel inside my bones
I can call you
When I’m in the dark, you would guide me
All of our love I can feel inside my heart
