Day 69: “The Little Girl Who Couldn’t”
One thing about me
is I like to be unfair to myself
Well I don’t like to
But you’d think I do by how often I do it
Past me’s
are held to impossible standards
“You’re stupid,
Bad,
Terrible,
Because you didn’t know”
But what recently I learned, realized
is I couldn’t know
How would I know
if no one taught me
helped me
told me
So what was once tangible
Something I was on the cusp of
Should have
Done
Was now something impossible
Intangible
Far
Something I couldn’t have done
Which opens up the door for me
To forgive
Myself
