From Erasing Emotions to Sitting Within Them

a poem and a writing challenge

there comes a time
when you shift from
the frame of
erasing emotions,
minimizing them, solving them,

to the idea that
you can sit within them,
regardless of whether they are
positive or negative,

and that idea alone
is powerful.
