I've always found comfort in the dark
Accompanied by the moon,
Who leaves her mark
She does so,
Quietly.
And she is often forgotten entirely,
I've never forgotten her
And she never forgotten me
I find comfort in her for selfish reasons
She reminds me of my mother
And the mother of my mother.
She reminds me of myself
My matrilineage is often compared by the sun
But that's because of how we are known to make others feel
Melanin in feminine is often err
And she is often forgotten entirely,
I've never forgotten her
And she never forgotten me
I've always found comfort in the dark
Accompanied by the moon, my place of nativity
