#poetry -Vulnerability
Better a word shared than not said at all,
better to stretch, to open to give
than to hide in lonely safety.
We weren’t made to solidify,
to grind to an inevitable halt
to fossilise until we are
merely a record of who we were.
The give may burn
but what rises from the ashes
is a life made pure in love
the connective bond
which calls out our humanity
to live another day.
