I suppose
I can forgive
Others
For their projected
Limitations
In a gesture
Of
Self Reconciliation
I must express
My profound sadness
That I
Imposed them
On myself
How dare
Anyone presume
Their fears
Would become
My mandate
That my soul
Would be reduced
And purposed
To serve
Their agenda
I forgive myself
A misguided belief system
I understand
The consequential pain
As been the
Catalyst
For the discovery of
And standing in
Who I am
Lest I forget
Nobody
Can tear me
Asunder
From myself
Without
My giving
My consent
To do so
Request denied!!
