I showed you Love, but you slapped it away. I extended compassion and you offered it to others.
The road may have been bumpy, but I never perceived it because I recognized the human condition, passed down.
I engaged in the rounds of apologies of misunderstood,
left patiently lingering,
never acknowledging the turn was yours while disregarding forgiveness.
Weathering the challenges of the hardest of times.
together
just us
and came out better
aware
what changed?
Words cut me deep, transforming my transition, embracing the scars,
now less prominent.
Not a comparison but rendition, predestined perchance as turbulence ebbs.
I waited.
To love again.
Open hearted, never to fear or avoid but to enfold once again and embrace its intimacy and let it cascade.
