Fragile

Starting off on a path with someone new

Being careful to not reveal my truth

The response they give indicates to me

I need to navigate more carefully.

Guarded and cautious, I think what to say

A friendship that’s new is fragile this way

Smoke and mirrors, I’m the illusionist

My real truth I hide and just show them this.

But here’s what Spirit’s showing me today,

"If this fragile friendship makes you replay

Your words and actions, expressions of you

Then you really aren’t embracing your truth."

Labeling this fragile is just a way

To hide the true me so that I can stay

So those that I need to keep in my life

Are those that see me and ride by my side.
