until late into the early morning
fixating on the plights and victories of the past
rolling sceneries over and over in my head
savoring what went right
and things swerving wrong
overcome with the feels of discovering truths
not evident in those moments
the efforts in times of my silly, ignorant youth
unfold before me as i ascertain what escaped me before
the truth of who i am is discovered
Reblogged this on The Reluctant Poet.

This is a wonderful book. I read it about 20 years ago. Helped me a lot.
‘the truth of who I am is discovered’ now you are an enlightened soul.

Such pretty writing, Susi! I love the whimsical, muse-like voice and the final power-surge in the last line.

I’ve not read either. I think the one you mentioned was huge back in the 70s, right?
