Small Talk

James Drewett on HSPconnect has written another beautiful poem and he’s kindly allowed me share it with you.

James says, “The poem was inspired by a comment on one of the How to Hold Space training sessions on HSPconnect where someone said how, in going “deep” in conversations, they would meet their own soul. The image stuck with me, so thanks for the inspiration!”

Small Talk

For how long 

do I skim this stone?

Skipping the surface skin

of your shore-bound self.

When all I long to do 

          is 

                fall

full-fathomed deep 

into your depths.

For it’s there I may uncover

a silt-bound sliver

of my empathetic soul.
