Mask Off


My voice
Underneath these tears
The thick welling caught in the back of my throat

Still I chant

Extremities of my skin
Tight with holding

Still I chant

Emotions
Trapped deep within
Buried from long ago
Rise to the surface

Still I chant

You can know no pain
Like the present
Facing it fully
Steeped in vulnerability

Still you chant

These moments
Doorways
A deeper experience
Into walking as you

You chant

Mask off
Eyes open

Thank you
