if you allow yourself
to bare yourself
to the bone for someone,
there’s always a chance
your bloody and dangling flesh
will be left twisting,
dripping in the wind,
without tourniquet,
cauterizing flame
extinguished.

to ourselves

An example of how a statement can be a powerful poem.
thank you.
Very nice! And that’s what it feels like, isn’t it? When you take that risk and let yourself be vulnerable. Good stuff here.
thank you, amanda.

Good reason to not allow-so true and bloody beautiful.
