Breyonna Perkins

She enjoys painting, draw, and writing because it helps her express herself in a constructive way. “I’m trying to learn how to express/ communicate more, so I can learn how to share myself through my craft.” Breyonna hopes to continue to master her craft and grow within it.
Gatekeeper
Sealed lips demanding silence to the painted heart
Cause ain’t no trust in sympathy
Sympathy be not the welcoming arms of comfort
But the mischievous ear to confide in
Sympathy be the voice who whispers your secrets
into the howling wind at night
Creeping into every crease and crevice possible
By sunrise all yo secrets have been revealed to
the world
Cause ain’t no trust in sympathy
So I cradle my own secrets
For I will never betray my wounds
