Permissions

Living life on an edge,

Permissions sought and granted

Always from others, 

Never from self,

Always solid, planted.

 

Thoughts to leave the track

To step out to the side

Risk to find one's way

Risk nowhere to hide.

 

A light, a smile, 

An encouraging word

An open question asked

Engagement of a troubled mind

Unseen images from the past.
