Ode 37

There’s an interest that goes beyond the beauty

And light years past the ample booty

Sarcasm you wield it well

And when it’s time you do your duty of making me feel heard and seen in a world that erases people like me

I guess that’s why I fight

Why I’m tenacious and dogged in my pursuit

Because the wait is worth having the eternity of my dreams

So when I close my eyes I imagine

And when I have to live this reality not in my rightful place a little more of me breaks

I pick up each piece so when the time comes you can put it right back where it should be and affix it permanently

Sealed by your love infinitely
