Can I...
hold onto hope?
acknowledge my flaws?
push myself ever-onward?
let go of resentment?
love myself?
Will I...
allow weakness?
accept my limitations?
remember my accomplishments?
ascribe myself worthy?
forgive myself?
Should I...
forgive you?
believe in half-truths?
submit to sentimentality?
reevaluate my worth?
hold onto you?
I won't...
