Solo Poly. Puerto Rican. Intersectional. You'd probably have a crush on me if you knew me.

I wonder if you don’t see me
because you’re ashamed
not of my face,
but your own reflection in it.
it’s not avoidance
it’s reckoning
you can’t stomach.
the hurt
so sharp,
so sidestepped
a clean break you could’ve prevented
if you’d chosen courage
instead of comfort.

let it undo me in doorways

you were the match
but the fire was mine

June carries color like a kiln
I didn’t ask for the heat,
but it shaped me.
This glaze, now fired,
burns bright.
Memories stay
cool to the touch.
The heat is late this year.
Fitting.
I am changed
on a molecular level.
I’ll never be the same.
And somehow,
I’m grateful.

The only thing that can save me
is the sunshine.
Not a savior
a witness.
To the soft undoing.
To the way I bloom and burn.
Music.
Passion.
Sunshine.
