Forget or forgive?

Lately I’ve been feeling better,
Wearing my mask brings me comfort,
Like a sweater.

Comfy and cozy inside of this lie,
That I’ve been doing just fine.
You just go on living your life,
While I hate mine.

That’s what fucks me up.
I’m trying to move on,
but it’s so tough
To find peace in this war.

A battle between forgetting and forgiving.
What am I thankful for this thanksgiving?

You ask.
I guess the wars over.
Let me take off my mask.

The list is different this year.
Each thing ends in tears,
because so many people aren’t here.
