Where do I begin?

A poem

Where do I begin? How do I start?

A royal we sounds passive, a cop-out.

Using you is belittling, accusatory

Saying I is selfish…even if I am the one speaking?

How do we know to listen if we’re not included?

Is it even for you if no one told you?

Why is it only about me because I am the one speaking?

This is my experience 

Take what you will

We ALL get to decide what’s real
