What is the legacy you want to leave behind?
I don’t need to be remembered for brilliance.
Just for this:
That somewhere,
at 2am,
someone carrying trauma,
grief,
neurodivergence,
or the weight of being misunderstood,
reads my words and whispers:
“Thank God…
it’s not just me.”
If my poetry helped even one person feel less alone,
that’s enough of a legacy for me.
Stay safe,
BC
