What About You?

yes, i see you
what about you?

you, who once hurt me
yes, what about you?

yes, what about you?
are you there?
do you exist?

prove it to me

i am whole
i am strong
and too i can
cause all the pain
that you have
caused me

but i am greater
i heal
and pain is no longer
this power

i connect again
but i shall not destroy
i shall not cut a branch
but i shall only
sow the seed
to grow again
and show the flower
and the fruit

both in our worlds
apart
