Sometimes my heart locks out my head

And the password recovery questions

Are impossible

The old favourites yield nothing

And I’m desperate to remember who I am

I seethe

Repeating similar patterns

That no longer serve me

I am stuck here for hours

Days

Weeks

And it’s only when I finally walk away

Let go

And let grace in

That I remember the year we met
