Dare to be the fool.
The misunderstood.
The one who swims against the current.
Release your voice.
Your laughter.
Your cries.
Don’t tame everything you feel
just to fit into someone else’s world.
We were taught how to behave.
Not to make others uncomfortable.
To measure our voice.
Our desire.
Our anger.
Our joy.
We were taught to walk
in shoes that were always too tight,
and to call the pain in our feet
maturity.
I’d rather walk barefoot
than spend my life holding myself back.
Life didn’t come to ask for permission.
It came to grow.
To overflow.
To break through the surface.
To find its own form.
Life is too short
to spend your days
performing an acceptable version of yourself.
Listen to what still pulses
beneath the rules,
the manners,
the masks,
and the fear of being misunderstood.
There is a current
that has never stopped flowing.
It still breathes through your body.
It still pushes.
It still knows the way.
The distance is shorter than it seems.
Between silence…
and the drumbeat of your own temple.
Cross it.
