Return

hundreds pass by your
living grave but you fail
to notice even one of them;
mourn not for yourself
but for the others who have so
carelessly wept for you;
doubt your own inabilities
to love, not theirs as they've
been displayed time and again;
protect not your weaknesses
for they have become strengths
as you have hidden in slumber;
remove your clothes of despair
and rejoice among the living
that you will one day love again.
