The Promise Within
My old, inconsolable past.
Until all my worries toppled.
And then there was nothing in the way of the vastness.
For a while, I felt guilty for not recognizing my abilities-
Which I was guarding.
Until they could no longer be invoked.
And now my capacity is permanently damaged.
And now there is no way to recover that promise within.
