Promise
I must promise to myself.
That one day I will transcend this wreckage.
That one day I will learn that being stricken-
Does not mean I am ruined.
That it was not a fabrication.
I must promise to others.
That one day we will imprint our innocence.
That one day we will sprout like a new flower’s breath.
