Entangled


We all, I suspect, 
 Have these secret, tangled places in our hearts; 
The doors we don’t want to open, 
But choose instead to hide behind 
A thicket of distractions and obfuscations 
Until we can no longer recall what lies beneath. 
Of course we could hire someone 
To help us tear away the clutter 
And reveal what’s hidden there, 
But we could also leave it be, 
And let the mystery serve as invitation to explore 
While reminding us our motivations 
 May be deeper and more complex than we know.
