Wild Waters

so many times I found myself in despair
questioning how long would it take
to forget and to move on
a few moments later I realized I didn't care
as intense as before, for the goddesses' sake
finally the line was drawn

baby steps to begin with
wishing you were dead inside my mind
for in the day by day you were erased 
and I could breathe in relief
this transmutation was definitely not kind
but now it is easier to walk forward

to where once was just a dream
in the wild waters of my core I swim

not drowning
not losing
not accepting 
it all only to berth
in the wrong wharf
but leaving behind you 
and forgiving my old me to
head on fully living
