Your Fear

Look at you.

You`re paralyzed by those words being sucked back down your throat.

Let them speak. Let them free.

Stand on two feet firmly planted shoulder width apart.

Steady those trembling hands.

Raise that bowed head and stare proudly ahead.

Stand unwavering against your fear.

And watch it crumble before you.

I have this knot inside of me
It`s one of those...mistake knots.
The ones you don`t mean to tie so tight, but as you try to loosen it for some reason it gets tighter and more complicated and soon.....it`s done.
You`ve made a mess of it and no amount of pulling or tweezing will untie it.
But, over time, someone will come along who is able to find a catch in the knot and
slowly, over time
unravel it carefully, and if your lucky
keep it that way.
I think I have, just maybe, found that person, who can fix even the toughest of my knots.
Guess I should keep him around.
