A line stretched out before me
A line running east to west
A line named grief and sadness
A line I don’t intend to cross
A line stretched out beside it
A line running parallel
A line of frustrated anger
A line whose beckoning, I quell
A line and then another
A line as far as eye can see
A line I mean to skirt around
A line traverser? No, not me
A line running east to west
A line unending either way
A line of infinite extension
A line unskirtable today
Today, one line I’m crossing
Today, when beckoned, I will come
Today, I’ll journey through completely
Today, feel pain and anger, some
Today, I crossed a line
Today, I plodded through
Today, I felt the anguish
Today, I’m weary and confused
Today, no longer feel afraid
Today, no longer bound to run
Today, I’m whole, embracing both
Today’s grief and joy within the son
Today, I live in victory
Today, I live as me
Today, I embrace everything
Then move on, another day to see
