Part I — I Came Back
I came back.
Not because I wanted to —
but because I knew success is persistence.
To achieve great things, time must be taken.
And even if I failed again, I knew I had to go on.
Failure is my enemy.
I don’t care who’s doing more than me.
For as long as I look back and see
the things I have to do,
and how many people will be hurt if I fail,
I cannot stop.
I just cannot.
When the scripture says
He has created a being; He has prepared the cave,
He was talking about me.
I was that prophecy.
I knew how many people would shake
if I stayed weak.
So I came back.

Part II — Unforgiving and Sacred
I came back.
I don’t care that my name wasn’t called
when others were called.
I came back —
because silence does not erase destiny.
Just because you don’t like me
doesn’t mean the Creator
didn’t form me with love and care.
This is open art —
artistic, intense,
soft, serious, and fierce
woven into one.
I stand poetic and powerful,
unforgiving and sacred.
I don’t care who’s doing better than me.
I came back, anyway.

Part III — Fire and Breath
As long as my heart is beating
and my breath is prayer wrapped in pain,
I will keep walking —
even through the pain,
even through the arrival of fire,
even through the trauma.
Because I don’t want to die young.
I’m not scared of death.
I’m scared of dying broke.
Scared of dying without creating a name.
Scar
ed of dying without making a history.
Scared of dying
a nobody.
