An Unlived Life

[nycgal85]

"I will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear of falling
     or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
     to make me less afraid,
       more accesible,
to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing,
          a torch, a promise
I choose to risk my significance;
to live so which comes to me
as seed goes to the next as blossom
and which comes to me as blossom,
   goes on as fruit."

     Dawna Markova
