my name is light

i can only breath and keep breathing

i can not heal the past

i can cry enough, to experience

that i am not light

i want to hold my ancestors in my arms

i want to heal them

my tears are blood

i want to shed all my life for them

those that in their life did not actively try to heal the earth

but they gave to me their blood and their genes

i want to be light

my god given name

and yet i can not shed enough

i want the pores of my skin to bleed light

and yet there is not enough to heal the earth

everything that i am

to heal

and yet i am alone in the cold darkness

this universe

will exist even with out light
