nite chat: 5:31

well
my brother
might be trying to tell me something
but
i'm not sure what exactly
maybe he's trying to say
i'm a bitter old woman with a hard heart
or maybe he's trying to say
he forgives me
for being  a bitter old woman with a hard heart
but
i cannot seem to escape
that
somehow i have failed

and
that's
whatever

i may have failed
in my sisterness
in my daughterness
on a variety of fronts
i am, in fact, prepared to believe
that i am not a good person

but
i do not believe
that my problem is my forgiveness
or the lack thereof
i do not believe that my heart is hard
at all
