daraja [COMPLETED✅]

P.R.I.D.E

1

Putting my foot forward and

Running towards the sun

In spite of the weights that would

Drag me back down to

Earth.

2

Placing my hand in the one of my lover,

Risking a choice between life and death,

I stand defiant in the face of

Danger and I will never

Ever fall down.

3

Pressing my lips to his

Rough ones, breathing

In his intoxicating and

Delicate sway over

Every tendon of my heart.

4

Parading around the streets,

Radios blasting songs of love

Into the air and inspiring the

Dance of liberation and

Eternity.

5

Pulling my partner close to me,

Relishing the fact that we are

In love and that there's no

Death-dealer that can

Ever stop us.

6

Placing butterfly kisses on her

Round nose, soft like the

Inner lining of our bed-sheets and

Discovering the

Evergreens of love.

7

Power over all the

Rivers of pain that flow

Into pools of tears.

Don't you

Ever let them win.

8

Powder covered cheeks and

Red lipstick enhance the

Inner beauty of a

Daring body in the

Evil sea of hate.

9

Princes, princesses, and the in-between

Running wild

In the fields of

Daydreams and

Ever growing dandelions.

10

Prizing all of my identities that

Rise together

Inside of my body,

Decisions to live my own and

Eventful, beautiful life.
