Velvet chains pull us with praise, those sweet treats, cozy chairs, and the soft treatments,
Velvet chains tug my own neck of fear; it whispers, “Stay where it’s easy, stay where it is safe”,
Velvet chains tug until a doctor says no or a door slams shut in your face,
Velvet chains tug; I name them as we go on and feel the mark lightened at once…
My mood is affected by with likes, nods, and seats where someone else can pull away anytime,
My mood is affected by my peace to panic the moment while the stream goes dark,
My mood is affected by my soul from the ones I have control of and from the one I have none,
My mood is affected by my own fuse where I learn to handle my own true load…
Simple yet fast teaches the hands to wait a minute before a cup of coffee or pressing a call,
Simple yet fast teaches the feet to walk around rough block without music or a mask,
Simple yet fast teaches the eyes to face a room full of noise and not run from it all,
Simple yet fast teaches the wants that can shrink if I stop feeding it hourly with attention…
Mind-led choices keep cash for needs and courage for unforeseen situations,
Mind-led choices say no to gossip and yes to clean honest talks that matters,
Mind-led choices that cut off the drip that kept me and away from my own body and my own choices,
Mind-led choices turn fear into steps I can finish with my own hands and own imagination…
Open hands hold people with respect, not need; a love that frees what it holds too much,
Open hands hold the plan loosely; as these routes might change while the main aim remains,
Open hands hold the self upright when comfort exits without any type of warning or say,
Open hands hold a life owned from inside, it may or may not grow steady when fortune kicks…
• Name your own velvet chains
• Flip your own switch as you can
• Learn with simple yet fast gestures
• Let your spine lead you through
• Hold gifts lightly as they might disappear too
