The Washer

The washer spins, tumbling clothes, as thoughts tumble in my mind New things I have learned today, that years I had tried to find The truth is important as always, but some of it can hurt deeply too All of it will come out in the wash, to be cleansing fully through Loss, heartache, betrayal and all she lied The depth of secrets held, when one died Now, it is the time, as more surfaces to be known With more evidence, of this long flight I have flown Heidi Sands 9/3/17

Thank you Vijay. Everything will turn out ok. Some things in life take challenging roads to travel and painful things to face, but there is healing and change. And closure can be there too. I appreciate your kind words :)
