Someday if you are lucky
The strength of the need
Will have nowhere to go
But everywhere
And tears will fall
And you won’t be sure
Of the words
But they will find their way
Weaving
Haltingly
From this center place
Out into the arms of another
You will know you have touched this place
Because the tears have no exact story
No place to pin, project or protect
They are simply raw, and human,
And more than what the mind has made up
Hold yourself there
Allow the swirling waters to move
Without judgment
With all kindness
Being witness, and mother, and lover to yourself
There is even a kind of calm
Because the worst part
Was wanting exposure
And not knowing how
To get it
Here, writing these words,
Tears dry on my face
I have received myself
Deeper than ever before
Is there anything better
I could imagine offering
You?
In love & community,
Ursula
