I want to forgive, so that I can move on
So I can remember what hurt me and learn,
From it, what to avoid, what to notice
I don't want to be lied to anymore
I don't want to be fooled
I don't want to ever allow that to happen
Again
I want to find my way through this muck
Of Despair
And rise up singing
I want to find my art
Write my story and
Free my soul
I want to love my body
In all its imperfection
Because perfection is predictable
And I no longer wish to be
I will embrace the Goddess, the Banshee
The Madonna and The Virgin and the Sacred Whore
And I will dance with demons
And make love to Gods
For I
Am
Alive
