hello

it’s been a moment

may i have this dance?

where did you come from, doubt?

who sowed your seed?

how deep are your roots?

we know you are here for a reason,

but your protection is no longer needed

so, what if you loosened your grip? 

tried something a little different? 

what if you began a practice

of trust?

release

unclench

surrender

— not yet

breathe

tickle the roots

call in confidence

let her bud

see the beauty she becomes

when you let her see the sun
