Revelation

An aimless spirit, a lingering soul,

one that doesn't let me sleep

 One that raises many questions
with thoughts that can't speak

& blurs the vision I use to see

questions in which I don't need answered 

or can't answer

          I wasn't always this way

 it was simply a dream 

To live freely without a specific destination 

for the future is a revelation 

only a mouth full of experiences

a heart with beautiful told secrets

 and many feelings to sing 

         I have an appetite to be intimate with myself and you 

& to continuously achieve autonomy 

Convincing ourselves that we are worthy 

Hopefully, you listen to the body I use to speak 

A tongue that does the walking 

         Wont you dispel the myths of being poor 

because I see a survivor

a strumming hero with great stories

because we all know that I could get lost in your tongue

I want to know your story 

& where you come from 

Dispel your myths of suffering 

because I see strength

from every lesson you've kept

         Last night is this morning

and you're glistening

 It's the present and were living 

Im afraid too

but we build the bridges as we walk that way

and sing the songs were to afraid to say
