“Please forgive me for all the things I have said”, she spoke softly.
AS she sat there, in front of the old mirror. The mirror which lay against the wall, the wall of the farthest room, hidden from sight of the minds eye.
“Please forgive me for all the things I have done.”
Slowly she trurned, another reflection cast back. Eyes heavy, features strikingly similar to those of her own.
“Please forgive me for all the things I have thought.”
“Please forgive me for all the things I have felt.”
“Please forgive me for all the things I have wished.”
“Please forgive me, because I know you know”
Defeated she fell to the ground… the reflection slowly moved to her… reached to her… and smiled…
“of course I knew, i have always known” the words floated through the air, they existed for only the girl on the floor… broken, defeated, victorious…
She opened her eyes, her mirror, her other, gone…
“I knew”
haunting E, haunting and lovely…

Thank you for this beautiful expression of Self. We do Know. (hugs)

I will forgive you as you forgive yourself. It is all about allowing one’s self to be imperfect, fully whole as a human.
