Courage

a Poem by Raquel Swann

You searched 

under the bed 

it was empty.

Looked in a closet 

full of clothing and shoes,

yet found nothing.

Ransacked cabinets 

and drawers

crevices and cracks

dusty boxes in the attic

looted with memories.

Courage can only

be found within

your soul.

Be afraid

no longer.

Who am I? Well, I’m just a trans girl trying to make my mark on the world. The most important thing to me is that all people be treated with respect and dignity. Writing is my passion and I get great satisfaction in creating art in the form of words. Any constructive feedback is welcome!
