i carry these words
the baggage i have chosen
heavy
in every sense
lighter though
as i pick through
determining
what is and never was
mine
i want to say things
to share
all that i have learned
am learning
but all these words and dozens of years
and thousands of pages
don't
make
sense
i think of all the shoulds
and could have beens
i berate
judge
criticize
in the silence i know the truth
the message
everywhere
forgive for there is no one to blame
no one even to forgive
the gift is wrapped like pain
conscious and free
i am not what happened to you
i'm not even what happened to me
