I can’t keep my head from spinning out of control,

Is this what being vulnerable feels like?

And I will try, try, try to breathe

I'm only steady on my knees;

one day I'll stand up on my own two feet.

I’ll run the risk

Of being intimate with brokenness.

Through this magnifying glass,

I see a thousand fingerprints

On the surfaces of who I am.

To hold this tired body up once more.

Building up and liberating me.

But one day, I'll stand on my own two feet.
