I wonder if kindness scares you?
Do you feel undeserving of its touch?

unburden me
i cannot bear this burden
and so i give it up to you
so that i may have some peace

silenced reasons
mute yet struggling
astute yet mumbling
trying yet fumbling
to be heard.
The Winged
My shoulders carry a gentle-downy burden
enclosed and curled up i seem to nest
spread out and straight I seem to float
the light above I cannot shut out
warmth encloses me all around
