A black queer experience
What’s Your Word: Swallow
What’s Your Word: Swallow

What’s Your Word: Swallow

Do you remember what you let in.
Do you know what just came in.
How often do you disappear
Into yourself;
Trying to reveal yourself.
How often do you disappear;
Trying to reveal.

How much darkness gets disposed
When you absorb your light.
How much light disappears
When you are engulfed by darkness.
How much of you
Remains
When someone else
Overstays.

Swallow.
Let yourself absorb.
Let go.
Let yourself in.
Reveal.
Let yourself see.
Allow.
Let yourself be.
