It’s the kind of poem that doesn’t just speak; it listens to its own evolution. The imagery—“words I loosed like doves in flame,” “bone is bone,” “wisdom sighs” is a stunning collision of vulnerability and assertion. There's grace in the speaker's permission to shift, and strength in the refusal to wear “a doubled face.” The final stanzas especially carry a quiet defiance against judgment, echoing something almost sacred: the right to change, not as a flaw but as a virtue. This isn't just a poem about growth; it’s about earned authenticity; the messy, beautiful process of becoming. What resonates most is that gentle command: “So let me change, and let it be, / A hymn to our humanity.” It doesn’t beg for understanding. It asserts that transformation is not betrayal.

Hope it shall be read in like spirit.
