The most delicate part of me
is solitary,
in a place of fear.

Yearning to connect and
know the sigh of ahhh...

And yet all hope of connecting is destroyed in this fearful place.

Leaning into curiosity and empathy and honesty and
realising I am not alone in my fear
will release mm being to struggle out into discomfort

To join with you in learning.
