Courage to me
Is the fire in the belly of the beast.
It's the heat, of the centuries, the fire
I cannot tame.
Each breath
Encourages the flame.
Scatters bits of me
Sailing on the wind.
Little bits.

The bits of all You
I breath in.
I take them, embrace them slowly.
Slower now, settling in I may
Not understand these pieces of You.
I may never hear all of You,
So I submit, you're what you give,
I tilt my head back
And allow the nourishment.
Your bits excited me
And confirm WE are ONE.

union, finalized expansion.
Only ONE.
I taste thee
And your courage
Demands me to try again.

As WE do time and time...
The waters move through the times.
I feel the embrace,
I see the face of my mother
Of another time,
I imagine her tears
Her fears and how each one
Was settled in time
And she gives me courage too...

Breath
Believe
Trust ME
trust You,
See WE,
LOVE unconditionally,
Kiss cheeks
Be free, tethered only to my soul.
Knowing time is defined by I

And I, WE allow courage
To push tears through,
The water breaks the gate,
Expansion necessary.

And it must be free.
They trace courses along my cheeks
And then I release
Those bits of me, into our sea
And I nourish You.

And I allow for the definition to be
Courageously capturing these bits...
Giving thanks just to witness.
