Written in Peace.

I feel death wash over like a sea.
My head is down,
I pray for an older version of me.

I feel love whip over like a tree.
My head is up,
I pray for a world where I am free.

I feel euphoria wash over in me.
My arms are up,
I pray for the skin I wish to steal.

I pray I am not forgotten.
I pray that I'm real.
I pray that the people I love
won't be disappointed in me.

I pray for money.
I pray for the greed.
I pray for the drive to live
to give myself the future I seek.

I pray for God.
I pray for Them to love me.
I pray that when I die I won't burn
For being queer and happy.

I pray for love.
Love, return to me.
Enough to give to myself
For the days hurting myself is easy.
