It’s true what they say
About holding back
Or letting go
You never really know
Which is best
So you try both
Nature’s way
You begin at birth
And re-find…
if you’re lucky.
The other, created
Taught to and at you
Scared souls…
there’s freedom.
—–
Hearts don’t actually explode
From emotion
Overwhelmed inside the all-consuming force
of their feeling.
Just as throats don’t actually close
They constrict
Requiring, equipping both their burn
and their burden.
Eyes though, they do decide on change
They surrender
Knowing no alternate way of freeing and exploring,
their fear and their love.
—–
Get your ground
let it go
leap into your adventure
It’s only now,
trust truth om
no backup plans required
Adapt and flow
move when you’re moved
let life evolve through you
—–
Placing bets
On the head
Or the heart
Life’s gamble
It’s your call.
Both likely win
In the end.
But which game
Is more fun
to play?
