Visible
Visible And everyday was difficult, walking around and knowing that people saw me one way, knowing that they were wrong, so completely wrong, that the real me was invisible them. didn't even exist them. So: If nobody sees you, are you still ? —Akwaeke Emezi, The Death of Vivek Oji Visible written June 5th, 2021 I slowly approach the idea of being visible after a lifetime of being afraid of being seen. Being invisible is a kind of protection. If I can be invisible disappear even myself the pain won't exist. I can testify the pain still felt even when holding perfectly still invisible the world. Self is something we are alone with by our selves but also something we are in relation with others. I reach out with this poem declare my self you. claim my space in this world. begin reveal me. |

This is a major struggle for me. Putting words on the page, posting them online, where they can be seen. Letting the words reflect the real experience of being me. It goes against everything I've done up until now. Maybe if I do this enough times, in enough completeness, there will be some acceptance from me for my self.
