I wrote a letter yesterday
To say
I could “not,”
Simply because
My body said “No, ”
And that was enough.
No worlds ended;
No feelings hurt,
This was me –vulnerable,
Back turned as I worked:
Erected and set boundaries,
To now rest
With peace

Believing “Can”
“I can,”
She said,
And she did;
When believing
The first line
She spoke,
Even at this end.

Anxiety is fear
Like a heartbeat
Like a pulse
A drip,
Fed through the system,
Headed for
And moved unwittingly
By that very heart
To the heart
Breathe in,
Feel;
Feel wind,
Air,
Oxygen
Rush, flood in
Into the system.
A reboot,
An infusion
An intervention,
A pherisis of essence
Breathe out;
For fear, anxiety
Built up is toxin
Is builder of other toxins
In the effort to protect from the hurt
Breathe in;
Smell, taste, feel, know
even see this air,
H20 medicine
That can soothe a frenetic heart
Back into rhythm
Breathe out
So that heart,
And mind too,
May remember their own cycle;
Cycle
Letting tensions go
And of
“Breathing”:
Tensing and relaxing,
Taking and releasing;
Letting flow
In and out
