red herring

nine
eleven
for years i have wondered at its significance
a coincidence or two -
of giants,
of symbols
misleading me
mistreating me
missing me

epiphany, a sign...
(a silent calling that's only heard by those who see my secret self)
it is (and was)
the date when angels and unicorns meet
and my happiness begins

newsflash:
pondering on the significance of years and wondering...
he found me today...and delivered an apology i've waited my whole life to hear
it's never too late
and no one's ever really gone...we just come back different
and sometimes, healed.
