The initial thrill and excitement,
The box-ticking analysis,
And heart pumping,
Does not stop or simper,
But morphs and moves
Into something bigger.
Something deeper and stronger
Something that reveals
Unrealised potential
Where inner workings and desires
Are melded together
Perhaps forever
And a deeper knowing
Establishes itself in the heart
The sentries have stepped away
No longer preventing entry,
But instead protecting
What’s being built within.
