ACCEPTANCe.

Acceptance of what?

Of self,

Of other,

Acceptance of denial. 

To be in denial,

Can you accept denial?

Is to accept denial to no longer be in denial?

. 

Denial of your infallibility,

Your secrets,

Your fantasies & desires.

.

To say yes to it,

To accept that means no to something else,

Something more than,

Less than.

Somewhere in-between,

Is in-between enough?

Enough for who & what?

To accept what exactly?

Who you are,

Who you have become,

Who you are becoming,

Who are you becoming?

To become more accepting

Accepting of self,

And in doing so acceptance of others.

I see myself in you,

I see you in myself.

I see myself in all its glory & mess,

The glory & mess of being human,

Accepting I am human,

Accepting what it means to be human.

To be imperfectly human,

To accept I am imperfectly human.
