A Night Without Armor
(Inspired by the title of a collection of poems by Jewel Kilcher)
A night without armor
I love that phrase
I love those individual words
I love that ideaWhat would that be like,
A night without armor?A night without fear
A night where you can let your guard down
And actually sleep
Not constantly half-waking
And looking over your shoulder
For things that must not be invoked
Lest they appear.A night with someone you love
Someone whom you must decide to trust
That beautiful moment of uncertain vulnerability
Exhilarating in its own sweet kind of fear -Not the kind of fear that needs armor
But the kind that makes you feel small and protected,
Knowing that you don’t have to rely on yourself
Anymore, that someone else will keep you safe.A night without armor
A night without spikes, or knives, or steel plating
Lay it all down
It’s ok
You’ll be ok. -
Lightning comes and lightning goes
And it’s all the same to me
Let it in
‘Cause I want you so
I can hardly breathe or releaseInto a thousand pieces
I have broke into
Over you
We’ll stop the flames at dawn
But I keep burning on and on and on -
“So, this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I’m still trying to figure out how that could be.”
-Stephen Chbosky
These are some of the things that inspire me, strike my fancy, or pique my imagination. Most of all, these are the things that remind me that the world is unbelieveably beautiful, though it's sometimes hard to see.
