Tomorrow is the beginning of National Poetry Writing Month. The challenge is to write a poem a day for all 30 days in April. Anyone up for the challenge? I will be writing daily and I will be posting some of my poems here on the blog. Below is me oiling up my poetic gears. Each time I pick up a pen to write it always feels like something takes control.
Vulnerability
Letting you see the tears that flow from a place of shame and hurt
Vulnerability
Drawing closer to you with each thought and confessing that your well being and bringing you joy makes my world seem more than just all right
Vulnerability
Admitting when I'm wrong even when I'd convinced myself that I am never wrong
Vulnerability
Allowing you to be there next to me in the moments and places in which I don't even want to be there.
Vulnerability
Uncovering the growing pains of learning more about myself
Vulnerability
Releasing the urge to always be in control and planned
Vulnerability
Trusting to share my dreams and aspirations
Vulnerability
Giving my time and energy
Vulnerability
Exposing myself over and over to the possibilities of being embraced or rejected.
Vulnerability
Swallowing the mouthful of what point I wanted to make even when no point needed to be made.
Vulnerability
Accepting help and advice and not just depending on myself
Vulnerability
Saying a thing in which could make you seem brilliant or completely stupid but saying it anyway
Vulnerability
