1 I am blinded by stupidity as though drunk on it stupidity made to look normal to me teetering on toes unbalanced and moving along this rough road I am trying to find a way through to myself by the seat of my pants
a hand stretches to me large and meaty, strong and gentle yet I hesitate to take it in mine what woozy stupidity sees is always wrong and never true
2 my heart is breakened the way a wave breaks on a wall shatters into tatters and shards releases into the outstretched hand all the hard surface it was all the soft torn sheets of love saved in hardness all the gentled pieces of me sharpened by betrayal into shards and the floods of salted tears from verbal slaps and punches, stored like holy water
my heart becomes a cabinet with locks stuffed with broken sharded pieces of me in need of kintsugi
3 I float am buoyed by the salted tears in the Sea of Forgetfulness the sea where sins are thrown never to resurface a riptide of Love drowns me tumbles me about washes me clean rounds and smooths my edges puts me back together ashore - safe, sound of body and mind
4 I find my way through with help from the Eternal Force warm as heated, crystalline air soft as a spring breeze safe as breath on skin secure as the spirit of a mountain
