So what can I do now
waiting for you while
the afternoon of my life
has come into full view
we’re not done yet you know
I’m waiting as you
reform your plan
reinvent yourself again
unpack the baggage
please—leave it behind
I have no semblance
resemblance to her
I am new to you
no history to skim through
no wounds or blisters
no Pandoras to unhinge
offering only this
fresh start begin anew
fresh eyes healed heart
good as new if you choose
