Moonshadow

By Van Gar

here’s to anyone out there
with old repressed hurts
that haven’t been healed

may we honor our emotions
may we allow ourselves to feel them
may we create art through them
may we cherish them
may we embrace them

may we accept and surrender
may we learn to forgive
and may we always remember
to choose love over fear

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

A special thanks to all of those who inspired me to

write Moonshadow for you helped me unravel a

part of me I didn’t know existed and I have learned

to love broadly.

To my twin, my confident, my womb-mate. Who has

read and re-read each and every one of these

poems. Thank you for creating a space where I

feel safe enough to be my most vulnerable self.

But my most significant debt is to my mom

and dad for encouraging and supporting me beyond

the imaginable in pursuing my countless and most

random dreams. I’m truly lucky to be able to count

on you both.
