Finally on my way to yes 
I bump into 
all the places 
where I said no 
to my life 
all the untended wounds 
the red and purple scars 
those hieroglyphs of pain 
carved into my skin, my bones, 
those coded messages 
that send me down 
the wrong street 
again and again 
where I find them 
the old wounds 
the old misdirections 
and I lift them 
one by one 
close to my heart 
and I say holy 
holy.
