you've never questioned the wrongs done to you
you laugh off the deepest darkest holes of your life
as a way to avoid ever needing to process it
it easier for you to normalize your traumas
Or say
"I don't remember it so it doesnt matter"
but god
if i could rewrite moments of your life
and make the hidden traumas disappear
i would
if i could erase every person who has ever hurt you
i swear i would
because you never deserved any heartbreak
or destruction
i promise you this now
i will never show you anything but love
and write over the wrongs done to you
