While the day lasts
I will look up
and see colors change
in the sky
While the silence lasts
I will revel in the
unknown moments
screaming without worry
While the heartaches last
I will cry in secret
and tell people
that I am fine
While the pain lasts
I will gather up
whatever courage
is left within me
While the time lasts
I will toil even if
it meant emptying
myself of the last piece
of my soul
While the music lasts
I will throw my hands up
and dance until
I cannot anymore
While my breath lasts
I will live without shame
speaking of the hope
that one day I would
finally taste freedom
