Relationship
Is not always
A yes
Yes is a bubble
A froth
And without No
To hold it down
You and I will both
Drown
In this sea of Yes
No is structure
No is form
And yet
Without the breeze
Of a Yes
We will suffocate
In the cage of no
Will you dance this dance
Of relationship with me?
Leaping, falling, tripping, catching
Laughing, crying
Through it all
But not still
Never still
I cannot guarantee
You will always like me
But I promise to be
Fully here
Heart wide open
Essence percolating
And I cannot say
I will always like you
Never judge
What you say and do
But I will accept you
And let you in
Promise to look
At what you stir up
Within
Me
Life is uncertain
Sweet as nectar
And terribly unkind
We cannot control it
We are washed by the sea
But we can promise
To stick together
To invest
In you and me
