today she put the past behind her
and when she did
she opened a curtain
and it was then she saw the light
it was warm when it touched her skin and
she could smell the lemon grass
tickling her nose
and it was then she'd realize she's
been missing so much
because of the past always
in front of her
and now that ˢʰᵉ'ˢ
gone
and now that ˢʰᵉ'ˢ
behind her
she has the strength
to confront the future
