#WritcoPoemPrompt122
Someone has asked you a question,
That feels far too personal,
It's only a first impression,
You might be completely wrong and irrational,

But still, you pause and reflect,
On the depths of your soul, inspect,
The fears, the doubts, the hopes, the dreams,
And wonder if they're all it seems,

Perhaps it's a test, a trial by fire,
To see if you'll reveal your heart's desire,
Or maybe it's just a curious mind,
Seeking truth, leaving fears behind,

Either way, take a deep breath and be still,
Listen to your heart, let your spirit fill,
With honesty and kindness, respond with grace,
And show them the beauty of your inner space,

For in vulnerability, we find our strength,
And in openness, our true selves take length,
So let your guard down, and let love shine through,
And maybe, just maybe, a true connection will break through.
