P - R - Aise!
She told me
From somewhere deep inside
let
| lessening | hearts reside |
as they are
Be free
of exposition
the need to retrace
Start at the centre
forgive but not erase
I love the you inside me
outside words
or need to be
I am trying to help
I am trying to free
I am learning to help
I am learning to free
I am learning how it is
how to be more of me
without
rejecting
you
How can I accept you?
With all your indignity
Your clashes
contradictions
& user fees.
How I accept you:
An ode to freedom
I want not restrictions
to bide my choice
retain my barrier
and build up walls
I want not to be told
that what I believe
holds no weight
no reason
b/c there's no price, no freight
I ask to be accepted
allowed
trusted
to form myself in relation
to what is
& what may be.
This I shall then offer to you.
Ears for hearing.
eyes to see
words spoken in sincerity.
