How do we bridge the gap
Created by anxiety or anger
The emotions that ripple-effect
Pushing back
I can’t reach or won’t reach
Till I resolve to make a way
Coming forwards
Owning my baggage
Acknowledging the impact on you
Only as we want to work together
no ifs’ or buttes
Only as we let go
of expectations
Only as we reach out
to freedom
even if it seems foolish
Can we bridge the gap we create for ourselves.
Never be too proud to say:
‘I am sorry’ or
‘I need you’
In our humility we find ourselves
Going forward
Together
Stronger than ever.

Beautifully stated. Saying we need someone means we have claimed and accepted our humility and are aware of our needs and strengths.
