I want to become
what you see in me~
not the worn style
of my own hesitation,
but the quickening grace
awakened by your gaze.
Your seeing transforms me
as if already whole~
as if cracks were not flaws,
but openings for light.
In your presence,
my innermost peace rises,
Absent of fear,
patient as rock.
You do not name me
by my inadequacies ~
you name me
by my transcendence.
How is it
you recognize the path
before my own feet
have walked it?
I carry so many shadows,
yet you speak
as if I were made from the rays of dawn.
And so I stand
at the threshold
of your sight~
not to perform,
not to prove anything,
but to simply unfold.
Allow me to transmigrate
into that vision,
let me shed
the husks of my doubt,
and wear instead
the fashion,
your love remembers.
For perhaps……
what you recognize in me
is not a dream,
but this very soul
I have yet to welcome
home.
