the forgiveness
i owe isn’t to you…
it’s to myself.
for forgetting my worth.
for letting you unearth me
from these roots.
for letting you pull me
from my truth.

but, so i can know you as you are.
so beautifully untouched by anything you think
you need to make yourself to be for me.

may we allow each other
the freedom to explore

in the same way,
but as we find and define ourselves,
let us not stand in each other’s way.

but unlike those who break us…
