You think that being the person
that tells me what to do
the one who shows me
how to do things
you are a good leader
my leader
You think that if
I put you on a pedestal
if I believe all you say
is the truth
that only you can
share knowledge
then you are a good leader
When I cry in despair
you shut me down
forcing my emotions
to silence
I feel incarcerated
when I am around you
You are cold
unable to share anything
personal
a good leader is the opposite
A good leader is vulnerable
able to connect with others
open to learning from others
does not see a hierarchy divide
like you do
A good leader is anything
but yourself
