Reflections since December

Reflections since December

Twenty Twenty was quite the year, from COVID to Trump there was lot of fear.
There is no way I could have known; though part of me I wish had been shown.

The story started to change with the crisp December air,
at least now through some reflection I can see it as fair.

December 11th at 9:08PM,
something new started that now shakes me to ends.
Previously existing with just protection in mind,
I was autopiloted and inhibited by fear all the time.

Don’t ask questions if an answer could exist that I fear.
Try not to offended; just talk about what is near.

This unconscious tactic I thought had made me so strong,
but all that I can say is that I was wrong…. so wrong.

Something happened which I cannot forget,
A piecing perspective from the one whom I’d met.

Things are feeling clearer now than they have in a while,
all this living with protections is just a form of denial.
Life is about Risk and embracing the Unknown.
