Come Forth

Come forth from the light,
Let me see your eyes.

Come forth from the dark,
Let me see your form.

Come forth from the black oblivion
Let me understand.

Come out from the darkness,
Let me see your love again.

Come forth from what you know,
Let me see the truth.

Come forth and let me know,
'S long as when you come forth,
I see the true, honest soul that is you.

About The Artistic Poet: Cristina Marrero

Jacksonville, FL, United States
I'm a Latinx, Queer/Non-Binary writer born in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I transformed into Diaspora when I was transplanted onto the mainland and have lived in Florida ever since. Before coming out as Transgender, I wrote The River - The Unsung Love Story and published a book of poems initially released through Lulu.com under their birth name. Shortly after that, I took a break from writing, leaving the series unfinished. Today I continue writing under my chosen name with a focus on LGBTQ+ intersectional characters for Young Adult audiences.
