they say that
to start the healing process
of sadness
regret
and
redemption
you must start with a story.

to tell someone of
your vulnerabilities,
and to speak of them
without fear of being judged

to vocalize your own beliefs
to share your thoughts and love
and fears
and sadnesses
with someone

that is truly an art form.

maybe one day i will tell someone the story of you and i
as a process of
my own healing.
