[Content Warning] Destructo

Before I was born
did I sign
some secret deal
a hidden accord
with Shiva
or Kali
or Skuld?

I seem
it sems to me
to cause such
pain
and ... endings
and destruction
wherever I go,
whatever I do.

Bonds break;
that which was
taken for
granted
can
no longer
be;
relationships split
- parent from child,
- brother from sister,
all changes
twould seem
that lead to
better things,
changes torn and new
but
offset by
that which is
newly minted,
and yet ...
and yet ..
did I sign some thing?
