Give me a night to find my way
Only tomorrow is with me and gone in a day
I will only live in this moment I can’t walk beyond this time
I will accept that my being is only a mortal element not to define an eternal rhyme
I am not Superhuman and I won't apologize for not being greater than my cape...
But like distant dreams and memories I will soon fly away
Untroubled and unburdened by the unspoken hurts of yesterday
No more sorries
I won't explain nor apologize for finding rest in this bed
I will make graven images of sleep for my soul hang my lids low
I am spent
I gave myself away...
Take a piece of me, one deliberate inch at a time and dissolve until I fade
Some God sewed me from a spool of loose thread
Gave me eyes and a mouth and a mind
And I am gone
Someone asked me to undress and I gave them my heart
Another came for my mind
And I gave another body another part
By the last request I was only a bit of sanity and that has vanished with the world too
I am wind now
A free spirit only allowed giving movement to leaves on the trees
So today I am going to plant a seed and grow
I am unapologetic for being tired
I can’t say sorry for taking time to learn me
I won’t apologize for trying to find a second to give myself life, just a moment to breathe
I won’t say forgive me for trying to find rest
A moment to look inside the heart in me
For I am only a boulevard of broken dreams
Dammit I am a woman
Not Superman
I am liberating myself from rules answering to the you’s who say that I have to
I don’t have to do a damn thing but find the beauty in me
I am not sorry
And I won’t play this game
Teri needs s time to heal
So you’ll have to pardon me
Cuz I won’t ask for forgiveness today
I will be unforgiven
