Trust
Thoughts expand
The sensation of pushing limits
Challenging myself to consider other possibilities
Putting down my pride
My idea of what is
Constraints built by learned lessons
Interpreted as Truth
I let go
And in a breath
Expand
To let you in
To trust
That my calculations
Fine-tuned by historical dangers
Needs an update
And so with that breath
Comes yours
All that I ask
In welcoming your breath
Is please don’t hurt me
Please don’t say something that you don’t actually mean
Because I am open to you
Showing you my infrastructure
Of my mind, heart, and soul
What you say right now
I will bury so deep
It will support how I view the world
You
And me
Please know that when these doors open
They pull heavy
And shut hard
It isn’t always worth it to
Pull them open
So please
Make this time worth it
