Recovery
She took what destroyed her and wrapped it in a cardboard box
She sent it away to a place she had forgotten, addressed to herself
She was so desperately fooled
Yearning to make new mistakes
She set out on a mission of new love
Hopelessly blinded by misguided expectations
Heart on her sleeve
She punished herself, though she forgave them
She hated herself, though she loved them
She hated herself for loving them
She was not what they were
She was her
