sometimes everything you believe is shaken.
sometimes what you thought you believe becomes blurred.
i believed in forgiveness--
in no record of wrong.
but records line these halls
in file cabinets so high,
i can't see past.
i'm leaving this crumbling structure.

ReplyDeleteI hope that everything is ok with you! What a perfect photo to go with those words. You've got such a way with that!
ReplyDeletegeorgia, this is perfect. perfectly sad. perfectly true. and perfectly perfect for this day and this night and all the rest to come. I've been thinking about forgiveness a lot lately. And how blurry everything feels now. This photograph captures so much for me. Thank-you for sharing.
