FIERCE/GENTLE

FIERCE      GENTLE

GENTLE       FIERCE

How fiercely I want to be gentle.
Insistent on my softness.

You told me I am fierce.
I took it as compliment.
Several lifetimes later I reflect.

You suggested I be soft.
Open.
Not insistent.
Gentle.

Now I fiercely seek my gentle.
Gently I accept my fierce.
