In Case You Ever Need it, It is Here

Let your name be
The name of someone who can do the unthinkable
Stands up and keeps moving.
You are standing. You are taking
a shower and eating breakfast.
You are going to classes
or going to work. You are doing
impossibly hard things. Keep going
and keep going and there
is summer. Laugh even if it is
with rage. Open your mouth
and your fists. Tell the truth.
Tell a friend. Listen to someone
else’s heart. It is beating a miracle. You are
Both here.
When scars are new,
They shine. Be all the glitter
You need.
