Brittle Vulnerability, Tender Fear And Freeing Your Heart

Don’t try to be strong.

Be a mess

Be a bundle of unexplained feelings,

growing out of nowhere like wild flowers in a field.

Let all your fears out

And watch their joy

Like birds breaking free

From a cage.

Even with a broken wing

A bird , or a fear,

Will take freedom

At any time.

Keep your vulnerability

Moist and exposed.

Let me tell you

A secret - it will not hurt.

Getting sick

Or old

Or lack of money
