Transition

sometimes
moving on
means stepping out
of your comfort
opening up
and allowing others
to touch you
and delve deep
within you.

as gentle as wind
as tender as rose
as smooth as silk
so sweet the talk
yet stronger than steel
beyond caring
was he.

windows opened within
the gates rattled
too close a call.

I am still me.
change nothing.
opening up receives another
loving means accepting
not changing
but to cherish one for all they are.

He is
anything but monotonous
living and growing in me
all that one can ask for
nothing can outdo.
