never
shrink
a wild thing.
don’t diminish it,
with your novice touch.
try only observing, 
with the softest gaze.
as it exists,
in its freest form.
without your disruption,
or any of your weak intentions.
it is not for your insecurities.
it is not for your fears to understand.
divert your hardened focus,
it doesn’t need your rules.
it is not for you to grasp.
She carries a wisdom,
you may never know.
love her from a distance.
love her there,
where she can most love herself.
