Vulnerability does not call for being uncomfortable with the idea of being naked emotionally in front of someone…but realizing that you no longer have to worry about how you’d look if you really were naked. Vulnerability is taking that first step to trusting someone with yourself. Being vulnerable is, knowing that you have a safe spot to land if you ever decided to fall backwards. Knowing that you’ll have a hiding place to bury your face and soak up the tears if they ever came and also a face that will light up when you smile after.

Still I feel the same

Sleepless nights spent in thought
Denying all that I can
Reassuring myself of the impossible
Trying to capture moments that push me on
But still I feel the same

Can't differentiate
Between my dreams and my reality
Caught somewhere in the middle
Neither home nor away
Distant

Standing at the walkway
Tired in thoughts
Random anyway
Trying to capture moments that push me on
But still I feel the same
