the gentleness of silence
the gift of forgiveness

I lie under the towering Jacaranda
Face tilted towards the sleeping stars
Marvelling at the gentleness of silence
Relishing the gift I got from looking in the mirror
And holding out forgiveness as an offering
The world fit into my hands easier
Once I stopped blaming myself for every goodbye
