Putting all my words here for safekeeping. My name is Tara. Non-binary, anarchist, life-giver, learning how to be a person.

Waking

In the mornings
in that moment of waking before the world becomes real
I would be filled with a feeling
like a delicious secret settled in my bones
and I'd think, it must have lost its way from a dream
and I'd wait for it to flee
as consciousness revealed its mistake

But I would wake
and it would wake with me
and it was real
and I was real
