T, a poem by Willow James
Updated: Sep 2, 2021
T
for Trey Phillips
from an ally
I want to ask you something
but
no need to answer
keep it to yourself
or whoever you’ve created yourself to be
which one required more–
T or trusting me?
with each injection
and new progression
I saw you
did you see you?
thank you for letting me see you
transition
transform
teach
triumph
try not to be defined
you taught me
how to teach myself
and be myself
here’s to you
Willow James
