The Truest Self: a Poem

Life in reverse.

What’s it to you?

Forget growth, forget development—

who needs movement into decay?

Wisdom and experience are overrated, sadistic.

Take me back, back to the best of it:

a young one.

No concern for potential.

No concern for disappointments.

No concern for broken hearts.

Just a simple state of being, now.

I am.

The sweet I am.
