Absolute

The 

absolute 

saddest 

part 

of me

was having to forget 

who I was

In order 

to forget 

me..

Another FAV for me... although this is terribly sad- and I hope that you aren't still in this place! The "you" that shines through your poetry is beautiful and radiant... I think the struggle we face is cutting through all the layers of other identities that people have piled on us over the years, and getting back to that pure child essence of who we were (and still are, on some level). Hope that made sense & didn't sound too woo-woo! Take care, my lovely friend! ;)
