observe me
watch how i do things
understand my processes
my emotional movements
when you know them
you know me
engage me
find my compliance buttons
enjoy and revel in them
watch me emerge
to take a leap
of faith again
when you try
to live in my world
in the way i need
a bold, loud statement resonates inside
telling me you hear me
you’ve chosen to honor my being
