nevertheless,
for all the sadness
for all the madness
for all the joy
for all the false hopes
for all the little things
for all the efforts
for all the mistakes
for all the inconveniences
for all the annoyances
for all the acceptances
for all the gifts
for all the resentment
for all the favor
for all the appraisal
for all the affirmations
for all the talks
for all the hearing
for all the smiles
for all the tears
for all the greetings
for all the goodbyes
for all the intentions
for all the unspoken thoughts
for all the confessions
for all the first time
for all the new things
for all the missed opportunities
for all the chances
and for all the path i’ve chosen,
my heart swells with gratitude
i am shaped by those pieces —
blessed or cursed, still and all,
there’s no remorse
for being part of me
for letting me be part of your existence
and for the fragments of my soul within you,
may you embrace, cherishing them
without regret.
