It’s not about playing the game of:
“I’ve bared my heart, now you bare yours”
What matters is not how much you Expose about yourself in conversation
but that your soul is Engaged.

Words may feel like they relieve the hurt
As conversation soothes
From the pressures
Of everyday
Activity and decision making
Opening us up to the undisclosed levels of experiences
Vulnerability saves
It can’t be undone
Sickness can be made into such an excuse
But evil can’t
It is aborted
The body requires it and it will
It knows what it needs to do
Just listen to it.
And your Spirit will thank you in love

That is all that is just.

I do not choose a game of mental chess
I'd prefer you show me
By trusting that we can hold the space

———————————————————

Undoing every punch
Lock my voice inside a dial tone of conflicting passions
It’s a curious thing when
You let these buried phantoms master you
They reappear and sweep you up
Into uncharted territories

As you sit and stare at their ghost of a memory
Knowingly
Dissecting the luminosity of your youth
Naive innocence
Still there
No faded imagery or idea is too far away to be
Believed
All is possible
in the mirror
of another world
Or so it seems…

When the bottle collapses the smoke stares back
It sees me better
Than a glass eye

Smirking creepily

I’m patiently waiting for it to change

Like the moments taken away

Helpnessness is an emptiness
That blocks out empowerment

It takes courage to reconfigure the empowered
To put your power in its place
And to recognize
That the mask must come down

Walked out of a door.      

Onto a tightrope

What does risk feel like?

Carving you out of cut outs
Identifying the body

Adrenaline lining my veins
Above board
See the planets fade
In and out
Of their eclipse

We must breathe for life
Living air
Has no replacement
For it cares too much

It takes a long time to truly get to know someone even if love at first encounter is felt.

Matters of the heart require patience and due diligence.  

The fact that genuine intention exists should be enough just as emotional and soulful intelligence.

Trust takes time to be earned.  
Loyalty is an admiral gift to offer but is to be reserved for the few that have been selected.

Walk through fire for those that walk for you and do it with careful choosing.

Connecting to my Vision

Learning to Trust with my whole heart

Loving the realization that it has

always been
in

Me.

To do this.

Clarity erases all doubt, for it is not only what we believe, but how we assume ourselves to live within the feeling of our conviction that means everything towards finding it. We can easily reverse the sides.
