All that laughing
The way we take up space
All that weeping
#NaHaiWriMo - SoapLook at my handsHow many ways are thereTo get clean
#NaHaiWriMo - Pink
Shoes, dress, eyes, nose, mouth
Fingernails, eye shadow, jewel
Underwear, tongue, skin
#NaHaiWriMo - Teeth
Whenever they breakYou feel it larger than lifeAll those small pieces
They tried to warn me
The idea of you is so large
I can’t contain it
#NaHaiWriMo - WitchThey said all the names.Only some of them were secret.Only some of them.
There’s no hiding.
We can see everything.
It doesn’t matter.
#NaHaiWriMo - LaceWe weave together.Decorate empty space.Your hands so nimble.

Here we find regret.Here we find forgiveness.Here we find beauty.

You took all the swords,Transformed them into ploughshares.Magic takes time.
Despite everything
We keep collecting days
A necklace of hope
