Acceptance

Once again I dissolve in your body,
once again become
washed of anger and fear
and old resentments.

I return with dignity to myself.

What is this except it be grace
that flows out in specific directions,
the kind of love
that resolves, then returns to itself?

I begin again
the trip more than once I’ve begun,
but each time have failed.
