Wake up, Sleeping Beauty! The Knight Got Tired on His Journey

Leave your tower now before you end up on a gurney…

Thought we were past demanding
Answers fitting in a “YES OR NO” box
Asking questions for a fish
When what exists is a magical red fox

Wiping out possibilities for truth
Sanitizing options, mental Clorox
Sent you good energy before that this am
Gently touching your new socks

Red flags for myself
Still a queen in a tower hoping for that day
The one where a loving knight
Shows up to take her away

Show her the world
Give only kindness from the deepest heart
Kiss on the forehead
A commitment to restart

Wake up, sleeping beauty!
That knight got tired on his journey
Leave your tower now
Or the whiplash of ups and down will have you leaving in a gurney

Broken neck, Broken heart
A planted seed that never bloomed
Instead of taking action out of love
That knight sits and picks at his old wound

This morning saying
“Silence is the loudest answer”

Soaking in the realization
That’s why this love feels like cancer

No words of affirmation, promise, or desire
The knight already made the choice not to be with the dancer
