tumblers

when the gateways
in my heart line up,
when I feel safe
and seen,
that sawtooth edge,
the life-shaped key,
clicks tumblers
one two three…
channels clear
love is freed
to flow with ease—
the magic trick,
the sleight-of-hand
is not to lock again

Love this, especially the last two lines. This lands beautifully! And how nice that it fell out of you with ease.
