What was written
In her own writing
He tried to hide from her
Precious but also
Dangerous
Real power
Doesn’t require you to suffer
We confuse weight
With power because
Weight once bought us safety —
Until it started
Costing us identity
Too expensive—-
The good you don’t want
Sometimes we get
Decline the exchange.
Hanging up the receiver
To that fate
Your silence will not
Pull me forward
Your silence will not
Tempt me
We are not trapped
Existing whether anyone
Shows up or not
