i
hear
you BY EMMA ONEKEKOU
Isee your love,
I hear you I hear your questions I hear your longing for freedom and love I hear your craving for liberation I see you I see you trying to break invisible chains I see fear slowing you down I see the fear of being exposed I see the fear of being punished, the fear of a punishment invented for you Human, like me, I hear you, I see you And if you see and hear me too, come. You will never be alone again. I hear you. I hear your need for affirmation I hear your need for visibility I hear your desire for expression.
