I close my eyes
I imagine a world in which
It's okay if you don't smile
It's okay if you don't agree
I open my eyes
I see a world in which
You smile to get by
You sit in silent disapproval
I close my eyes
Waves lap at the shore
Nighttime sky envelops my thoughts
I open my eyes
Waves come crashing in
Daylight burning my brain
I close my eyes
The pain washes over me in comfort
Identity, Power, Struggle
I open my eyes
The pain washes over me in distress
Misplaced, Displaced, Struggle
I close my eyes
