What If

Haiku

By Colleen WaltersPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

…Tomorrow was not,

Would you have lived this moment?

Would you put it off?

—-

…You had this moment

To soar like on eagle’s wings

But you let it go?

—-

…All was on pause, and

The resistance fell like the

Walls of Jericho?

—-

…The chains binding you

Fell at your feet with a touch

From an angel’s heart?

—-

…You left the chains lay

At your feet, and let him in?

Your heart is yearning.

—-

… You saw your own worth

And true self… and decided to

Step off that ledge now?

—

… Your worst fears are keeping

You shackled, because you are so

Close to being you?

—-

….You become focused

On embracing your feelings,

Setting yourself free?

—-

…You were just honest

With you, and let it happen?

Just trust in these words.

—-

Let it be tonight.
