You offered me your friendship when I saw myself alone.
You saw me as an equal when I saw myself as damaged.
You invited me to dance when I saw myself as awkward.
You encouraged me to play when I saw myself as darkness.
Today when you see me you also see the darkness.
Today you avoid me to keep from feeling horror.
The world is full of evil but the world prefers denial.
You are of the world, Chelsea; I am choosing light.
