Overwhelmed

Oh day
wondrous
in all that you are
I ask
that you be kind to my tears

They aren't
because of you
but rather
your ancestors
who accompanied my years

Oh day
wondrous
in all that you are
did you not know
that time
created my fears

Experiences
that came
and left me with
the nothingness
of what I held dear

Oh day
oh day
bright
with the beauty of the rising sun
I cannot hide
I cannot disappear

I am
overwhelmed
so be gentle
with me
be gentle as I try again
to be me
in spite of where I've been
because
today
I am here
