I could’ve done the right thing
Many moons ago
If only I could’ve understood
How my heart, I could follow
I didn’t know myself enough
Yet denied it when you claimed to
I was afraid to let myself in
Always thought, maybe it’s too soon
I knew when something didn’t feel right
I could feel my skin shiver and my bones tremble
I could never tell what, precisely,
Whatever the truth was, often remained a jumbled mumble
I went so far away to find myself
Days and nights I cried in emptiness
That’s when I understood myself
Then it was clear that you and I are the oneness.
I’m grateful for the struggle
For without it, I wouldn’t have travelled so far
I’m regretful for the pain
For because of it, I have travelled away so far
I’ve accepted my slow growth as this is who I am
For because of it, I have travelled so close
I admit my greatest gain today – You,
For because of you, I have found myself.
