ここに生きている (koko ni ikite iru), "I live here" in Japanese. The verb is present continuous tense; "I am living here" would be literally closer but comes off more stilted than the original.
Thanks for posting this.

The thing that I really like about this piece is how it uses the combination it's vivid imagery and evocative poetry to touch on so much in such a short span of time. I feel like it makes a statement on queerness, trauma, growing up bicultural, disability, PoC experience in white supremacy, love, and relationships, all in less than 10 minutes.
I guess what I'm saying is that it's very intersectional and I like it.
