Alone into my childish fears, and there
Confront my fathers for my children’s sake.
I must go back before I cease to care,
And the world darkens and I cannot move.
Forgiveness is a journey from despair
Along a path my ancestors approve.
I must go back and with them make my peace:
Forgiveness is a journey into love.
