No More Secrets

No More Secrets

Let’s be open books,
present our pages
regardless of how torn,
the amount of smudges,
or what’s written.

Let’s read these pages
free of judgment and expectations.
These words shall enlighten us
with understanding so that
we no longer have to guess,
no longer have to conceal.

Take your time, I’ll take mine.
I’ll immerse myself in your story.
I’ll turn your pages carefully
I won’t skim over a single word.

 

I’m tired of hiding my book.
I constantly, restlessly, move it
from one spot to another.

So now, I give it to you.
There’s no rush, no pressure.
I trust you with this book,
my heart in page form.
