You are a fugitive of buried truth—
a blessing they taught you to call a curse.

They gave you names for what they feared,
doctrines for what they could not explain,
and boundaries around the questions
they never wanted you to ask.

So you learned to run from the very parts of yourself
that carried the memory of what came before.

Perhaps the curse was never in your blood.

Perhaps the curse was believing
that what they feared in you
was something you should fear too.
