POETRY: YOU ASKED FOR IT

 YOU ASKED FOR IT

2:u

4rm:me

YOU'VE GIVEN ME SO MUCH

YOU'VE ALLOWED ME TO 

FALL IN LOVE ONCE MORE

AND...

IT FEELS LIKE

A SLAM DUNK

the discipline helped me grow

THE PAIN HELPED ME KNOW

THE TENACITY 

HELPED ME TAP BACK IN

TO THE INNER CHILD

THAT WANTED TO SPEAK

TO THE CAGED BIRD

THAT WANTED TO SING

THANK YOU

FOR HELPING ME EXPERIENCE

WHAT MOST NEVER GET TO SEE

 ANOTHER CHANCE AT LIFE

BIRTH 

OPPORTUNITY

I TRUST

WHERE YOU ARE TAKING ME

IN THIS MOVEMENT OF GOING UP

the manifestation on my own self

THAT HOPES FOR PEACE 

FOR ALL OF US
