Definition: https://www.writing.com/main/books/entry_id/625309

Prompt: Write for ten minutes about how and when you feel vulnerable.

I wake wondering if I am okay
If I can find my path this day, or if,
Again, I will set with the sun knowing,
Expecting, tomorrow to be better.

Will I meet my goals and live fully?
Shall I meet my truth and survive hate?
Can I smile at myself, to lift me up,
when the mirror shows me that which I can’t
confess to my heart, or feel in my soul?

I am now unguarded against myself,
I have torn down walls and opened the drapes,
So that I may really begin to love,
not only who I am, but who I was.
Also, for the future ventures and dreams
That I may know me, from so long ago.
