i will save my energy
for the battles i can win 
or the battles, 
that even if i lose, 
i can still make
a difference.

i will battle for the 
forgotten and the fearful. 
for the tired and
the downtrodden.
i will battle for those who
have less than i do. 

i will stand should to shoulder, 
be someone’s anchor
in the storm. 
hold each other up
so we know we are
not alone. 

every fragment of me.
every shard of broken glass.
 
the pools of
misleading words.
 
small cuts. bruises
of empty color.
 
here. is. me.
