Day 56: Look Closely

How close can you get without touching it
You can see it
You can feel it
You want it
You crave it
But
you just can't embrace it all
because
it is too much to fathom
or
you just aren't ready
or
you are afraid
because
What will it demand of you
What will you have to give up
What will you have to change
To get way beyond close
so that it consumes all of you.
But something
just something
keeps you from getting
too close
