HELP


(H)orrendous…
(E)ffort…
(L)acerates…
(P)erils…

HELP four-lettered word, seen as weakness personified.
Being superman or superwoman, only to discover impossible.
Rather sink than ask, into depths of depression.
What will it take, one’s self to humble.
To admit road difficult, truly need some assistance.
How unbeknownst to you, whole village is waiting.
The fence is yours, you to tear down.
With love and respect, others your boundaries honoring.
Begging is not needed, groveling not a condition.
Arms open wide waiting, simply need walk into.
It is your pride, which keeping you outside.
There is no secret formula, no magic words speaking.
The answer lies inside, permission to love yourself.
When you do this, the walls do fall.
Coming out of woodwork, are ways to connect.
Was enough to admit, tired of the struggle.
Wanting friend walk alongside, a community that cares.
It is all there, open eyes and heart.
You may feel vulnerable, never been so strong.
What seemingly seen insurmountable, has become a molehill.
