A TRIBUTE TO MY SIGNIFICANT OTHER

My unknowing,
My desire,
My love,

To be more in balance,

Thought me,
That pretty…
Is feeling beautiful.

Wasted at home,
Not ready for the outside world to see yet.

Knowing that…
I am afraid for my own judgement,
I think I am not strong enough to face,
Placing myself in a cube,
That only will tell me half the truth,
Of what I am becoming…

The first time always is exciting,
Being aware of what is to come,
Trying not to slip too much information,
The pre-fun,
The change,
The trying…

The second time it’s more a habit,
Trying to do a better job than the first time,
Making some additional changes,
To be more in touch.
