The Willing Fool

The Willing Fool

 

There is a quiet strength
in the one who risks the blush,
who steps forward
knowing their voice might crack,
their timing might falter,
their hands might not know where to rest.

Most people build walls
out of polished silence,
choosing safety
over the sting of being seen.

But not you.


You walk into moments
that could expose you,
laugh too loud,
speak too soon,
try before you're ready,
and stand there
when the heat rises to your face.

That heat,
that burning flicker of embarrassment,
is not weakness.

It is proof
you showed up.

It is the cost of honesty,
the price of movement,
the mark of someone
who refused to stay small.

Let others stay composed
behind their careful lives.

You,
be the one
willing to look foolish
on the way to becoming real.
