My Voice

Being Undone

Drawn by Samuel Ortiz and Edited through GoArt.

I am untangled
I am undone
Step by step
I am transformed
Say Goodbye to the rabbit
No need to fall in that hole
Nor do I need to follow its time

Darkness does not blind me
Shame is not my cohabitation
But only by the clock of grace I return to the light

No longer the circus elephant
Freed by the invisible binding
Reaching out does not pain me
Release becomes an exhortation

My voice does not drown my mind
If becomes I
I has a name
And my voice moves from inward
And trembles outward

I do not fit in my shoe
I have expanded my room
No longer room for another adult
I understand it’s not my fault
I found my place
And my place is undone

Living in a world like we do now, we feel forced to follow what it says, such as the trends and set ways. Our voice can be drown out by other…
