imagine: a world of peace and love.
“Here is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.”

Heartbreak opens onto the sunrise
For even breaking is opening
And I am broken
I’m open
See the love shine in through my cracks
See the light shine out through me
My spirit takes journey
My spirit takes flight
And I am not running
I am choosing
I am broken
I am broken open
Breaking is freeing
Broken is freedom
I am not broken
I am free.
— poem from “Pariah”
