I genuinely cannot believe we are already in hour 6 – it feels like I just woke up and also like I’m an 80 year old woman aching in her reading chair well after midnight. LOL! But that’s okay I’m here I’m ready! I’m stretching, I’m dancing, I’m doing all the things I can do. And I’m super excited for this prompt too: Say hello again by @thepoet_rajah on IG and Twitter!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Poem 6:<\/p>\n
I think that if you could just find it<\/p>\n
somewhere deep inside of your soul<\/p>\n
to say hello again, to reach out just<\/p>\n
one more time with the intention of<\/p>\n
staying – or at the very least growing –<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I think that we could be something<\/p>\n
really quite special from within our<\/p>\n
custom worlds built upon book spines<\/p>\n
and spilled inky farewells. We do not<\/p>\n
always need to push each other away<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
just to feel alive, wanted or needed.<\/p>\n

Poem 6.5: (because there’s time and I want to explore the prompt again) :<\/p>\n
I want to say hello again,<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
to actually pick up the phone<\/p>\n
and call you from three hours behind<\/p>\n
and 5 years down the line, ready to<\/p>\n
hear everything you’ve been through<\/p>\n
and all the things that have changed.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I want to say hello again,<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
to explore all the possibilities of<\/p>\n
this relationship we keep dipping<\/p>\n
our toes into but never actually sharing.<\/p>\n
Knowing that you and I – we bring<\/p>\n
something really cool to the table;<\/p>\n
balance. A skill, not a lot of artists can<\/p>\n
claim between life and work and<\/p>\n
all that incredible daydreaming too.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I want to say hello again<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
and know that this time there<\/p>\n
does not have to be a goodbye.<\/p>\n
