Shrunk

Whatever you think it is.

Sometimes, it is easier to shut your eyes.
Hide your face
In the dark.

Believe that it is reality you are seeing.
That silent.
That empty.

You could imagine it is deep and huge,
Or small.
Like this room.

Start to believe that this world could be
So manageable.
So easy.

When the possibilities become so few,
It can’t hurt -
Not that much.

But you’d be running from Love.
Not brave.
Not you.

Your world would be that nutshell they talk about.
