I’ll never cease to feel extremely sorry

For all the sorrows I didn’t relish in

Bathing in pain and navigating tragedy

Means of being alive and young and strong enough

To leave them behind if not learning from each one of them

So here I am, I promise to enjoy all the tears

To savour all the screams, to nurture all the wounds

And I’ll leave it for tomorrow to say hi to God for you

Amen.
