Your Rainbow

I like you

In all your rawness

Before your mind

Comes in to dress

You in ideas and judgements.

That naked purity

Of your being

Of your feeling.

I like you most then,

So come as you are,

Without any pretences,

I know, I know,

It’s not easy to show your vulnerability,

To revel in your authenticity

But that’s where your strength is.

As that’s where true presence is.

You are not the mask you wear

All day

Tiring yourself out, pretending you know the way,

Come as you are,

I’ll hear you out,

I’ll not avert my gaze.

Free yourself from

What keeps you caged.
