Write a letter or poem to yourself about what you love about this chapter of your life 1 years, 2 months ago
LGBTWho?
I bleed rainbows and cry stars
I find community in bars
I was sorrow, I was sin
I denied myself to win
I was lonely and unsure
But no longer immature
I am love and I am strong
I am fearless in my song
I don’t care what others think
And I’ll raise another drink
To brave souls that came before
And blew the locks upon the doors
I am free and I run wild
Like the art made by a child
No remorse and no regret
What you see is what you get
Walk with me and feel my pride
And you will enjoy the ride
Of vibrant life and color burst
Without hunger, without thirst
I am technicolor smile
It just took me but a while
Now I am “alternative”
Let me love and let me live

Ricardo, this is sooooo good and perfect for pride month. I love that you are stepping into your authentic self in this chapter of your life and it’s brining you all the peace and happiness you so deserve. This is so creatively and beautifully written. Thank you for sharing, and as always thank you for being part of our Unsealed family. <3 Lauren

Thank you for appreciating my poem, Lauren! I still can’t read it without getting emotional…I guess it’s because I am not “there” yet with what my poem describes. Someday, I hope. <3
