I hope they look
into my eyes
and see
what truly
lies behind.

See the innocence
from which
I derived.

See the ambivalence
about identifying
with "I".

See the tragedy
I endured.

Learn that it wasn't
a dice roll or just
my turn.


See that it was
perfect
because I learned-
understanding
is what makes any
experience
worth it.

**So let all of it-
forever burn.
good with the bad.
Even beauty lies inside what is sad.
