with hope that my last breath is one of relief
from escaping betrayal and heart wrenching deeds,
I let go with acceptance of my hurt and grief
and buried myself among the butterfly weeds.
a retreat to the tranquility and silence
for a breath of the burning vanilla incense.
I've forgiven the unforgivable,
even though cruelty was unequivocal.
but the act of self-exoneration was inexplicable,
sadness and grief -- contagious and insurmountable.
it's as if I've truly never been at ease.
is it too much to simply ask for peace?
