to embrace caution
to access this new information
to slow down my pulse with measured breaths
Today I need to locate my panic’s source
to immobilize my fear
to heed my heart’s warnings
to analyze my certainty I’ll be hurt again
Today I need to be still
to reflect upon my younger self’s doubts
to acknowledge her searing pain
to wrap her safely within the tranquility of my experiences
