Getting from Here to There

I've had feelings, held inside.
Too sensitive I tend to be.
My father use to say "a lack
of water we'd never see".

For tears could flow from just a word
or thought, to hold me still.
So understanding comes easily...
my dedicated skill.

I guess I fear success but know  
deep down that what's a gift
is that of failure, if in part
you learn from it and shift...

Your enemy that resides within,
those doubts that seem to rise,
knowing life has a learning curve
sometimes steep, and needs more tries.

So giving up or pulling back
once preferenced, mind was blocked.  
I've risen high these last few years
releasing what was locked.

There is almost here again,
as cluttered thoughts unfold
allowing what was once a joy
to simplify new old.

M

You hold a special kind of thought
that in the sharing
is blossomed
