If you believe only in facts and forget stories, your brain will live, but your heart will die.


she turned 

the weights 

on her shoulders

into wings


a beautiful mess

of color

and hope


all blue

and red

and green

and the colors

that meant

‘happy’


because now

her plumage shone with

her true 

colors
