Changing Faces

Changing Faces


My soul exudes 
The many faces
I wear 
Bursting from my 
Fragile heart 
Scratching my emotional 
Yearning to be whole
My black face
My lost face
My woman face
My childless face
My scar face
My struggle face
My pain face
My gay face
My acceptance face
My sleepless face
Hoping there is really 
A God face
My old face
Bleeding to breathe
As I shout to the universe 
I belong here
As I cry 
From the 
Changing faces 
In me
