Undo

Even though I may never thrive-

At least I will no longer be condemned. 

Someday I will forget that I am altered. 

Someday all the people who know I am different will have dissolved from my life. 

Except maybe my family. 

I will continue to become more inhibited. 

Until I start missing that part of me. 

Then one day that will stop. 

And I can undo a tragedy that used to be mine.
