Let our tears tread lay the way finder for the future. There is no need to dry them, let them be painted as sigils on our skins. Let them lay bare and true our testament to freedom.

The loss stings deep and true into our soul as we sail across through these storms. The loss sometimes leaves us unmoored, threatens to capsize us, to sink us into the inky black.

There is no doubt there is, have been, and will be loss. The loss of rights, lives, loves, and so much more. It would be folly to ignore it.

So keep putting one foot in front of the other. Eventually we will notice footprints that look like ours, or better yet—we will cast the print down for others to follow.
