Why do you relate to my silence the way you do.

why do you make it mean anything other than what it is.

do you see how you begin.

how your creative juices start flowing.

how your imagination is pulled into the scene.

Why do you design my character that way.

and make up a role for you to play.

w/out my consent you make a portrait out of my being.

you take what is not given. and build an altar.

an altar to what no longer is living.

I’d rather you mourn, forgive or grieve.

don’t resist.

this moment is for you.

exhale my silence. and what you made it mean.

inhale.

the energy available here. is the energy you need.

you are an artist.

it’s your job to look.

for what was. is gone.

and what is. will change. again.

About the Creator

hadiyah

I am a tattoo artist.

that works soul deep.

the potency leads to rebirth.

so death is how we will see.

your heart.

is all you need.

xoxo

come play with me.
