Letting Go - [Poerty]

Letting go

Tonight I don’t want to be strong,

I want to be soft and vulnerable and just want to be held,

strong and tight in a way I know I won’t break, because you won’t hurt me.

I want to be saved and I don’t want to feel ashamed

or feel less of a strong woman for wanting so.

I don’t want to be Wonder Woman tonight,

running a house, single mum, working full time.

No. Tonight I want to be just a girl, no thoughts, no responsibilities.

I want to forget that I am 40 years old, divorced and lonely.

I want to be okay with being fiercely independent and still saying “I miss you”.

I want to melt in your arms and just breathe,

breathe until my heart slows down, as it does when I feel safe.

Tonight, I want to return to softness and love and warm feelings,

I want to ditch any logic.

Can we do that?
