Winter manipulated my shadow.
I rather experience the summer storm symphony
of my Honduras.
I no longer want to be the author
of the works I write to change the world.
I want to be the protagonist
of the works they write
because "yo cambie el mundo."
And I no longer want to be the daughter
of her and him.
I want to be my person.
No gender or family identifying
the success of my Hispanic soul.
