My eyes were closed tight
Behind them a story began
Behind them I found what was
I found what use to be
I watched as it asked of me
I listen to it question why
I saw it hang it’s head as my body shrugged off
a no written in my eyes
I woke shortly after
knowing I didn’t take the hand
knowing I didn’t choose what was
what could have been
This is growth,
…………………… I whispered to myself
