i have no problem telling you i love you and remaining vulnerable.
having my emotions made known and unkept behind thought and lips.
i have no problem wearing my heart on my sleeve, exposed with the ability to shatter.
i have no problem waiting.
no problem hanging on your last words. wondering what will be said next. what will make me think, laugh, respond.
i have no problem having you occupy my mind. letting myself daydream.
i'm learning to breath deeper and take everything in.
i am learning to trust this process: what is going to make me stronger, more compassionate, loving, open, and aware.
i am excited for the possibilities of understanding your heart and being someone your confide in. trust with secret skips of your heartbeat and questions about life.
i am excited to grow with you.
and in the mean time, i will take those long inhales...
i will sing underneath my breath simple love songs,
i will be brave for you,
i will be an agent of change with relenting love,
i will continue to be open and willing and respectful,
i will be love.
and if you cut my chest open, there you would find my heart; dancing to overwhelming melodies that makes a person tear up. a heart that is developing and changing to suit a lifestyle without condition.
