Initially, such promise…
Newness.
Youth.
Things thought lost.
Hope surged.
Visions
of a wiser version
of the past.
The absurdity is now clear.
It was costly,
This relationship.
It is done.

Are you?
What would it take?
Are you willing to risk theĀ inevitable cost?
Could be dear.
Consider this:
Why can’t you just be?
Happy?

I used to set free, little bits of me
More readily.
Fear stepped in.
I stopped.
Journey in.
Accept.
Practice.
Strength– Flexibility –Balance
I move again.
Released.
Free.
Me.

A bit of erosion and you’re gone.
What lies beyond is too enticing, too seductive.
You cannot resist. Instinct sets in.

Usually I am answered. Not this time.
What’s the meaning of that?
