Ten years ago (I knew)
Reading my old writings
And I’m going to be sick
How did I not I not see this coming
It should have been obvious
The words were flowing out of me
My hands were writing words that
My brain could not yet understand
Words my mouth wouldn’t speak
Sentences that ended up in graves
Feelings that would rise again
I should have seen this coming
I knew before I actually knew
My soul was trying to tell me:
“This isn’t right and you know it”
My heart wanted to be free
But I didn’t know what it meant
To be truly me
Even though
That’s all I ever wanted
