So you say you know how to relate?
But do you know how to stay in it even when your heart begins to race?
Do you know how to set boundaries, take space, and even, leave with grace?
Do you know how to share your inner reality without needing to save face?
And, do you know how to speak truth from your heart in every case
Receiving another’s with no need to brace?
So you say you know how to relate.
But,
To do so, we must not run, hide, avoid or wait —
Only COMMUNICATE.
