Untitled

I reach out
Outside of myself
Perching tentatively
Exposed and waiting

I offer my words, my thoughts
A sacrifice of sorts
To be picked down to the bone
My flesh turned carrion

I read up
On what separates us
The thing that is us
If we let it be

Fear is the crux
In the depths
Our shame lies
To us

Loosen the chains
Taste that freedom
There is power
In unrestraint

Nothing will
Hold me back
I unconditionally
Love

Myself
