Forgiveness, Pt. 1

Sunset over Lake Michigan, near Luddington, MI.

Sometimes there’s wisdom 
in letting go and moving on
Put down the weight of others
Lest your heart turn to stone

Accelerated chaos
Is how it feels to live through this moment
That we are all living through
And choose to deny we feel it

It’s normal to normalize
Compartmentalization just to survive
But if I want to have some kinda life
I need to recognize

I gotta forgive myself
I only just learned the things I needed
I only just stopped repeating
Mistakes like they were skips on the same record

Learning to mix them in with grace
Learning to trust myself completely
Forgiving those that couldn’t see me
I didn’t know myself, so how could they ever come to know me?
