as small as a world and as large as alone

cuttlefishculling:

put your ears softly to
the nape of the tree and hear
all its dormant blossoms,
all of its inner children
waiting for spring.

we all have things we hide.
but some are to protect us,
and others are for show quality:
the sparkling gasp in everyone’s throat
as you force your audience
to stare down your true self,
and to have them admit to themselves
that, contrary to popular belief,
you were always going to be
something.
