speechless is okay, for the mind, yet the heart never are...

~for Blue Sapphire~

 

communication does not require sound,

the silence of your internalities

is a permission slip

signed by you, for you,

to communicate your most

inwardness

to your own self

 

but

smooth and silky, unencumbered honesty,

not raw, where the noise of subterfuge of self

is a disguise, an avoidance,

 

firstly, quietude,

the preparation of no distraction,

allow your interiority to be your priority,

making as clean a slate that you can due,

 

then be inquisitive,

inquire of yourself,

with kindness to yourself,

for who among us is

is a flawless poem,

 

*no one

 

inquire why,

and the barriers will resist but you insist,

but they are porous,  there are  holes and pathways,

through these self~constructed devices,

and ignore the yellow arrows, wall painted,

instead branch off where it’s grayest

pointing to the path least trodden

 

task paralysis has brought you to this place,

now

grab yourself from within,

ignore the objectors,

rip off the soiled coverings,

and permit  light of honesty

to breach, break out,

and illuminate

your being
