Open
Time used to break me in so many directions. Yet now all I see is the thrift of a second. The distances one can go in a few short moments.
Today I have broken out of my shell. Not afraid of who I might hurt or offend. For I have come to know I can confuse so many and make people feel completely shocked in the things I do or say.
Not because I want to but because I am not afraid of who I am now. And as much as I used to be concerned about those who live in the neighborhood I realize we all have lives. We may bump into each other but doesn't mean that warm greetings have to come out. A nod or a look can be sufficient.
These days I look forward to my countdown of months. Today I have four and half months before I leave here. Every second counts.
Yet today it is all about expressions. Green eyes, petals, lake, photos and me. Sounds as though exploring who I am is self indulgent but it's more of a wonder. A way I get to feel free in a moment of hurried thoughts.
Slowing down for a release. Enjoying the silence or music that moves me. And I smile.
Dare you be scared of my admittance. Don't be. I am not. I get it out of me and I feel better, wouldn't you?
Time is grand. Life is slowing down. And I am enduring where I need to. Now you must try too.
