Things that ‘tamed’ me.

You live your life, uncover days and months and years and each moment you discover things that meet the cosiest corners of your hearts. They find a place to live in and reside. Days pass and you layers your hearts with the things that layer your heart. You become what you become because of the layers that your heart don. These things tame you and make the most fragile spaces in your heart. But you live more and you love more things and make them feel home. The oldies voluntarily leave at times if its as oblivious and temporary a thing as human beings. You are hurt as the layer changes its colour to the colour of stillness. The layer stops growing, it stretches into tatters, and is lost. But you remember the way it tamed you, the way it held you in happiness and the way it scattered your inside that your knees feel weak. The layer put you close to things that define you now. Its unforgettable and it is also the only thing you remember, so concretely, about yourself. The layers define you. The layers and the things you heart make you into what you want to become. Keeping close to the things you love, make you all the things you love.

Uncovering, layers of time

by people, springs and fall

days of flickering hope

still overpowering the blues of heart.

Uncovering, sheets of warmth and white

that made the cosiest corners inside

to know the things that 'had me',

coated my heart.

Uncovering, that tamed me

(my heart)happy gleam of my eyes

and sliding salts of hurt

as I abandon the controller of my heart.

Uncovering, guards that held people strong

to treat their wounded sides

with the glare of cosiness, warmth

to be tamed, all over again.

Uncovering, fearlessly with

crossed-fingers and big leaps of faith

to feel it new, each day

with no repetition of innocence

Uncovering, ignorance

lost with every breath

every step ahead

to be reunited again.
