I didn’t want to come to gathering yesterday

I didn’t want to come to gathering yesterday.
I didn’t want to face up to my pain in community.
I didn’t want to explain.
But I came.

If I’d had a chance I’d have made an excuse.
I’d have stayed at home. I’d have hidden away.
I’d have looked after myself.
But I came.

I didn’t have to explain, but when I did
I shared the pain and found it lessened.
I didn’t have to come.
But I came.

I’m glad I did.
