Let Me In

“Let me in

Said the fish

This is no fun al all

Let me in said the fish

I do not wish to fall”

-Dr Seuss

I am that silver sliding Pisces

Teetering on the brink

Watching waiting 

For you to let me in

I see the hurt in your eyes

I notice how you stop yourself

Sometimes mid-sentence

To keep me out

I promise to hold your secrets deep within

Torture couldn’t rip them out

Is it judgement you fear

I do not hold favor 

I’m not judge nor jury

I just want you whole

Let me in please

I will not roar 

Break the precious pieces of you psyche 

I will quietly listen

And remind you

You are not alone

You are loved

It will all be ok

Just let me in
