It is a maddening shade,

How could you grow in the absence of color?

In the  absence of hue,

In the absence of light.

So I hoped this would remind me,

Life is dark from the perspective your mind falls in.

The unavoidable is thought of in the dark

People show up for each other in dark times,

It creates a memory that records darkness,

with light

Dark or night time exists because of the absence of light

And in the absence of light we have nothing to lose

Night puts me at my most productive,

Reminds me that my suffering is not just for me

I am thankful

For the person I can be for others

As a sister

Daughter

A friend

That’s why I do this.
