if hope was lavender, I might sleep easier at night
instead, it's loneliness and desolation and
that time I got caught in the ocean tide and
my brother barely saw me, and grabbed me
just before I was taken out to sea
it's the face I put on in the mornings,
sleep still settled in my eyes, and going
through the same routine, but not noticing I am;
the way my body shivers in the cold dark of winter
my fingers gliding across clothes hangers
mindlessly trying on clothes for the day
the skirt I want to wear versus the one I opt for
the conservative choice I know will be approved
the moments I let hang in place of myself
