So, I allow myself
briefly
to wallow
in the self pity
that appears
to like me;
wants to feast
surreptitiously
on my confidence.
I reach out to her.
My unconditional,
constant source
of sheer compassion.
Her past haunts, softly
bleeds into my memory,
before grabbing, shaking
smacking and shoving me
into perspective.
