Love After Love

The time will come

When, with elation,

You will greet yourself arriving

At your own door, in your own mirror,

And each will smile at the others

Welcome.

And say, sit here, Eat.

You will love again the stranger who

Was once yourself.

Give wine, Give bread. Give back your

Heart to it’s self, to the stranger who

Has loved you

All your life, whom you ignored for

Another, who knows you by heart.

Take down the love letters from the

Bookshelf,

The photographs, the desperate notes

Peel your own image from the mirror.

Sit. Feast on your life.

:) This is a poem one of my therapists read out on her last day of working in the therapeutic community for treatment of bpd where I am. I think it's really nice. Hugs.
