Chrome Halos...

Eyes on the hallway, whispers like knives.
Teacher looked past, said “kids will be kids.”
Rumors on lockers, slurs in the ink.
Walked in a storm just to learn how to blink.
Sunday talk shows laughing at pain.
Dinner table rules: don’t say the name.
Hold the line. Breathe. The ground is mine.
We learned the route from fear to steel.
Tiny sparks became something real.
Head up! Keep time! Don’t break! Refine!
I hear the future call across the wire.

We wear chrome halos in a neon rain,
Build whole skies out of broken panes.
Hand in hand, we outrun the night,
Turn scars into satellite light.
Say my name! Let the sirens fade,
I’m not ashamed of the path we made.

Chrome halos burn so bright.
My love is bold, and non-binary fierce.
Light me up, cut through the years.
We hold each other in public air,
A fragile joy we choose to wear.
Read my pulse: this city’s mine.
Raise that flame above the signs.
No more shrinking just to live.
No more “sorry” to forgive.
Enough!

We wear chrome halos in a neon rain,
Build whole skies out of broken panes.
Hand in hand, we outrun the night,
Turn scars into satellite light.
Say our names! Let the sirens fade!
We’re not ashamed of the path we made.
Chrome halos burn so bright!

Stand tall!
We rise tonight!
