My mind is like a time bomb,

It's ready to go off at anytime,

I look in the mirrow and what do I see,

I see my father, we have the same eyes,

Then I lose focus and see him,

It's so scary and strange,

Then my eyes start to tear,

There he is, crying right in front of me,

Is this really happening?

My mouth moves, I hear him say" I'm sorry",

"I did not mean to abuse you",

My heart starts to hurt and I tell him "it's ok".

I then see myself teary eyed and pale,

I wipe my eyes and look around,

My babies are asleep in their beds,

I smile and kiss their checks,

My heart is filled with lightness,

What just happened to me?
