Carnal
Here, I finally give in:
indulge me.
Let my breath out with a whoosh,
loosen the belt of my mind,
remove my watch, and
stand: naked to emotions and urges
generally kept tightly wound.
Here, I let my heart lead
- no – my stomach
and my gut becomes a
force to be reckoned with.
Let freedom come
from Blackberrys and timekeepers
and all of Tom’s peepers,
cause when we get it on in public
I want them to watch.
And they know they like watching.
Here, I take my cues
from whatever and whoever takes charge
I fill in the gaps
and enjoy the breath.
Leave behind the world of regrets
where stress rests
and open new eyes to possibility best
created in a world of:
lines erased
fears chased
chest open wide
with a brave heart inside
Act, Do, Breathe
for at least one moment.
Take your respite and
tour the depths of what it is to live.
Here, when my walls begin to give.
