In your Becoming
In my own Becoming
I am digging into my love for you
I need to ask myself questions ::
Is my love for you
oppressive possessive or manipulative
or really affirming and liberating.
It will help,
in this self questioning if
I ask myself these questions::
1 Is it more important to me
that you are nurtured into growth
or that I will be pleased in your momentum?
2 Is it more important that you are self determining
who you want to be,
or that you become what I want for you?
If you are not self determining
It could mean an oppressive relationship.
I believe in self determination
as much as I believe in anything.
