Holding On Tightly

--

Original photograph of the author.

Do you know what it feels like

to leave behind fear?

Do you recognize that taste

pungent

yet sweet enough

to hold you captive?

It is not permanent

unlike the sea.

Instead,

like the waves

it is meant to wash over you.

Fear can come and go.

The question is…

why are you holding

on so tightly?

XO,

Laveet
