An awakening

A fall

A rising

Here I am

I know not what to know

Still however, I do

Pushing back against it

Acceptance must be defeat

Punitive even

Still I do

Still I am

They know it

They see me

Yet hide me

Here I am

Naked but cloaked

Shamed in knowing

I see her

I know she knows me

She loves therefore I can too

She carefully considers death

Death of whom

Death of what

She comes

Not for me

Because of me

Because love

I have it

For my own
