The path that has less shards and boulders. the pavement is barely cracked.
If you can find a smile to help you tuck in their fears
Divert their assumptions with meekness
Just wait until you gently shut the door to scream
face burrowed in a thick pillow.
take the 1-2-3-ahhhh.
inhale until it gets foggy.
and let go.
When you come back invite the brightness back into the room--even if it doesn't reach your eyes
the color that looks "so good on your skin"
say the thing that makes you sound "so articulate"
wear the style that their "hair could never do"
you can be yourself. wait
just wait.
