Four Sides

Did you know there are
Four sides
To your heart?

I’d been putting all my thoughts
On the front
Thinking that’s where you were

Turns out you were hidden
Way in the back
Accessible only with forgiveness

I let you go today
From the front and the sides
Breathed deep into the regret

Regret for what could have
(Should have?)
Been

I opened and stretched way past
The familiar parts
Into the blind spots

Feels like I shouldn’t even talk about you anymore
You’re not open – it’s not a possibility
Maybe ever in this lifetime

I’ve let you go from the front
Of my heart
Slowly releasing you from the other sides

May take some work
But that is what is
Right
