How many times
can I write a rhyme?
Until my mouth sours like a lime
and I crumble under the divine?
How much longer can I go
until I fall over like the last domino?
Is it when I reach my lowest low,
when I can no longer say no?
How much more can I bear
until I fall out from under my chair?
Is it when I dare
to lay my soul bare?
How much longer can I last
until it is all too vast?
is it when I finally crash
from the weight of my past?
when will I know?
It will show
when I begin to go with the flow
and let my crown of indigo
take me with the undertow.

i loved this. my gf were resting together this weekend, and she was lying on me in a way that i could feel her heartbeat in my own chest. it was such a foreign, new feeling, and my emotional response was very intense. i felt so exposed. i wanted to get up right then and go do something. but i just lied there, breathing with her and observed the feelings of immense love (and panic).
i will always dare to lay my soul bare.
also, i think you already know.

thank you for your poem. i will always dare to lay my soul bare.
also, as far as the poem’s title—i think a part of you already does, and its a lot bigger than you think.
I’m so glad you loved it, thank you for reading and thank you for this wonderful comment❤️
