Pride is not only a scream

Pride is not only a scream,

a party, a demonstration.

Pride is taking the hand

of the ones in their journey.

Pride is standing together,

stronger.

Pride is protecting those

whose strength is still in training.

Pride is celebrating

each other’s

steps.

Pride is keeping each other

on our toes.

Pride is being visible

when it is safe.

Pride is being in the closet

when there is no way out.

Pride is giving each other confidence.

Pride is giving each other hope.

Pride is giving each other the space

to dream of freedom.

Esgrima

A veces los primeros besos

Son como la esgrima.

Un duelo disfrazado

Un batalla con otro nombre.

A veces esos primeros besos

No llegan.

Se esquivan con destreza

Y pierdes la batalla.

A veces esas cosas pasan

Y como en toda batalla

Algún corazón

Resulta herido.
