God What Is It That I Lack?

God what is it that I lack?

Everyone I loved was a blade held to my back

Earth is a landmine where the blood kisses the flowers

When violence was at my wake, there comes a mental fog

My fragile life was at stake, my flesh is sore

My serotonin unbalanced

Hell, my mind is losing its gravity

My psyche was an open crack

Kiss the ghost of my memories

No need to be haunted I dine with fear

You were another face I had to bury

His hearse lies within me

I loved the thought of you

Seal the thought of you

End this portal of grief

I look into the eyes of the woman

Left with no disguise and bare

Undress my humanity, it’s still there

Healing is invited when acceptance is a given

My consciousness transcends this dimension

Uncovered she realizes she’s sublime

No need to follow society’s times

She dreams a thousand revolutions

And where there’s tears

There’s legacies to be bred

I remember he said, “It’s up to you to evolve.”

Now I fill the gold in the crevices

Woman reclaimed,

No need to bathe in my own shame

My soul lives

I’m a phoenix bursting through the flames

There I’m reborn

I am unenslaved

A poem written by me, Lady Sira
