being able to talk about it,
recognizing there was nothing
we could have changed,
given what we understood then,
given what we knew
Nothing that, had we done differently,
could have brought a different outcome.
Nothing short of
the salvation of the whole world
could make a difference
So there it is —
what could have helped us then
can help us even now.
We turn around and face the place
where dawn will come.
