voice
I'll whisper,
if that helps
lean in and hear my new
true voice
full breathed; no swallowed syllables;
unrehearsed
rich in truths, in
essential utterances.
the clearest
voice I know
pure in candor
unadorned by pretense
Hear this new
voice
unstoppered
no false resonances of
past recriminations, denials, dismissals
It is a voice
pumped full of need
voluminous in love
rich in timber
sonorous with you.
I'll whisper.
Lean in and hear my
new true voice
Listen with
new ears
