Numbness fills the space
of feelings named wrong
like a hobbled balloon
punctured on purpose
What is this feeling
called guilt
this slippery
as moss on a rock feeling
of not good enough
were mistakes made
or perhaps choices
only to suffer
the fish-line tangle
of shoulds and should nots
does everyone
need a trophy to win
or is a path of discovery
the greatest prize
a meaning assigned
to uncertainty
like recognizing the strength
of a pruned rose
leafing in time
to fill the empty space
no longer numb
but believing
a larger process is at work
