say it anyway...


sweating palms, increased heartbeat, beading on the brow, feet nervously shuffling... say it anyway...
unsure of the delivery and more unsure of the reception of the words... say it anyway...
happy words of joy, a proposal... unsteady nerves about to rattle you apart... say it anyway...


a request for an increase, a benefit, a day off for something special... say it anyway...
hard news, tough language of concern, a stern word of concern... say it anyway...



say it from a place of peace and calm, say it from the deepest corner of your heart... 
feel the words wash over your consciousness and 
wrap them in velvet so as to dull the sharp edges of these swords... say it anyway...


hold back only those words which cause hurt or unnecessary harm, say all that you need to say, tempered with peace and with a melody of joy... say them at any opportunity to do so, 
tomorrow may never arise on the horizon again... 


your words, your emotion, your connection to those around you...
your life's narration and poetry, your essence, your soul...
shake the fear, they matter..
say it anyway...
