Through Courage

20 seconds

60 seconds

300 seconds

It’s not

The time

Spent

It’s the

Courage embraced

The courage to step in

To move

To say

What you want to say

What you know

Needs to be said

To have a chance

To move beyond

A spark

Into flames

To speak

A gentle tenacity

Spoken

To invite connection

Intimacy

To listen to that voice

The flow of energy

That is whispering

Take a chance

Sometimes

It YELLS

Don’t miss this opportunity

Courage

To find the feminine

I search for

I long for

Will only

Be found through courage

My courage to speak

To act

Her courage

To listen

And speak

Our trust

Discovering within

Each other
