for my part

I've constructed my dream
and believed its illusion

I myself wove the skein and tangled myself within
so that you might see
something beautiful
instead of just me

and my cherished/ugly fears:
that which little white girls don't learn to show.

i know my part.
i'll admit the role i've played.

i loved you the more for rejecting it all.
