Matrix Moments

Media Moments: Question, reflect, connect

Clock Watching

In risky conversation
my words fell
into your listening ears 
and I uneasily started…

Clock watching 
the minutes
seconds
of day
pass
slower
Little dribbles
of leaked time
as I waited...

Nothing happened
no great drama
no loss of me
no laughter at me...

I realised
that while I have given
a part of me
never shared
It adds
to this world,
rarely subtracts...

Why was I worried?

Starting Thoughts: Sometimes, accidentally or deliberately we share something we've never told anyone before. It becomes a moment when we wonder what we have just risked, will it backfire? Will connection be broken as we share the pain, the struggle, the failure that we have been holding?
