Text

Oh, the comfort
The inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person
Having neither to weigh thoughts
Nor measure words
But to pour them all out
Just as they are
Chaff and grain together
Certain that a faithful hand will
Take and sift them
Keep what is worth keeping
And with the breath of kindness
Blow the rest away.
