A rush of emotion like the blush of a sunset
If I could spell out the angst that covers me like dark clouds
I’d retell the story of my soul
“Once upon a time, there was this pretty brown-skinned girl with a heart full of hope”
Oh, the stories I’d narrate to help that one seeker navigate my expanse
But hope fades faster than promises are made
I cannot explain my feelings so I’ve given up trying
But I’ve promised you a story and a story I’ll always give
