Like running through an open field of perfectly cut bright green grass
Covered in wild flowers
With Thumper and Bambi racing alongside
Under a brilliantly blue sky
Without clouds or rain or shade
Free like the slight breeze, babbling brooke, and robins singing in the trees
Trusting you feels like freedom
Like sauntering down a well lit gravel street
Under a harvest moon and infinte stars in the sky
With dogs barking in the distance while thier owners play fetch and wrestle before bedtime
Where owls are perched high, hunting for pray and calling out for thier mate
Free like the multicolored dragfly -- beautiful and bold, resilient and in flight
Trusting you feels like freedom
Like wandering through an endless library with every book in any language ever spoke
Like a warm fireplace,
A hot cup of chocolate, with marshmallows,
An oversized chair in which we both could fit and a blanket that always keeps the temperature just right
Where music plays in the background just faint enough we know it's there but can't quite hum along
So we make up a tune between the notes while we smile at each other over the turn of each page, until we're done
Only to pick up the next one, laying on the table to our side,
Having no better place to be, no greater thing to do, but be lost in a storybook with you
Trusting you feels like freedom
Free like a storm cloud passing by, drenching the earth with replenishing rain
Free like falling down, confidence crushed,
Only to see a hand reaching out, turned to tight hug and a push to encourage you to get back out, to try again,
Now even more emboldened
Free like being lost, and yet unafraid of what's before you
Free like knowing what I don't know now is all the room I have left to keep growing
Trusting you feels like freedom
And freedom is all I'll ever need
To keep showing up as me
