Many of Me

I don’t know if I can travel back in time.

At least not anymore. 

They say I am incomprehensible. 

But they have never forgotten something so badly…

That hearing the truth feels like a threat. 

It is as if there is something in the past…

That I forgot to undo. 

Why am I being punished?

When you try to say there is nothing I can control?

I must have made a mistake in a different timeline. 

I have too much power. 

Because there is more than one of me.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing. I think I’d mess up this timeline, much less several!
