Gemini

I keep harvesting self-doubt,

Afraid that I won’t have a self to doubt,

I keep pouring my heart out,

Afraid that I won’t have a heart to pour out.

I couldn’t hang on,

Because of how tight I was hanging on.

I couldn’t reach the dawn,

Because of how fast I was running toward dawn.

But I persevere…

With ink on my fingers,

And paint on my hands,

I keep expressing how I feel,

Until I understand who I am.
