weeks blurry wrapped

in a flurry of how did

I get here

and where do we go now

*

do we splinter

break and fall separating

the accumulation of

six years and five lives

*

divided up

into neat little boxes

of trivial half truths

in cages we built

out of fear and insecurity

*

or choose a different way…

sweet evolution releasing

expectation

replacing the traditional

straight-laced vanilla

with lovers

shared breaths

open hearts and minds

possibilities abound

acceptance within reach

body, mind, and heart

finally one.
