Conversations with the Dead

I went to visit my father
in the land of the dead
where everything is forgiven
and only the truth may be spoken

and I met him there in a field of wildflowers
like the ones he used to take me to as a little girl
big wild industrial fields,
left alone to go to beauty,

and I went to tell him of my resentments,
but I found only love.
And I would have told him all my guilt, 
but there was only gratitude there.
And in the end, I would have told him everything,
everything left unsaid and undone,
but there was only this:

I love you. I love you. I love you.
I know.
