AN INTIMACY WITH LIFE
Intimacy is all about
How much you allow in
And how much you reveal
Most of us are covered up
With strategies erected
As defense mechanisms
Against wounds inflicted in the past
But you can’t maintain
The strategies of defense
And experience intimacy with life
At the same time
And intimacy with life
Is part of our longing
Without it we are dry
And always feeling
That something is missing.
