pedigree apogee

i've found my mind.
only after i've let it go

so many times

trodden on by love
tugged on by the temptation

to exist in a lie.

i cast my mind away at times
to loosen the noose around my heart

my heart inflates with forgiveness
in knowing
me and my broken father
can be stitched back together
with a small amount of sewing

i've never felt this real
since the day you ripped us apart

if we are to be tattered rags
worked into a form of art

coalesced into one quilt

i need to know that you love me
behind all of your guilt
