Remembering Monique

Hospital.

These walls erected

To build a barrier with the world.

I am Superwoman

Will laser eyes

To pierce through the cracks.

See the world

Set me free.

I will look at the sky

The clouds, the rain

I will stand on the ground

And walk.

Remember me for faster sign in

I am Superwoman

Lift the world on my shoulders

And hold.

I want to give

At the community kitchen

I will put on my trench coat

Who will know?

I want to smile and give

Give love, receive love

Then for a moment

We won’t feel hungry.

A life in freedom is hard

But I am not broken.

That’s why it’s all right

I die.
