Leaving a hall of discord and
Still grieving for all my mistakes

The stage
Where smoothly stuttering movements
Are their own brand of finesse,
Is the stage upon which I wish to waltz
For the rest of my
Audaciously authentic,
Dazzling days.

Dear papí,
Sometimes
I look at myself,
And feel
Disgusted.

Rotating while in orbit,
a cycle that I could not break without the mighty strength of God to stabilize me.
I am not meant to be seen without my filter
She is the secret I hide under my bed.
I meet her from time to time
Who am I without a filter?
Before I adjust the contrast, saturation, shadows, and sharpness of my image.
Before I change the filter to Mayfair or Valenica.
Before I get my make up and hair just right.
I'm in a constant state of madness
with my disarrayed hair
I stopped tampering with
and my bubbly, bright voice
that can't seem to stay quiet.

Those rhythms in my soul are always pounding
Pulsating, shaking, crying, hoping, longing
For a dance floor
Looking behind the curtain and finding there's no one there
I'm hiding somewhere safe pulling out my hair
Leaving these hallways for the final time
Not sure if I'm ready to let the real m shine
I see a space where no great thought floats among stray feathers where loud sound chases g
