Blood though thicker than water

Makes no excuse for what is done

For only we allow the hurt

To rule our lives from sun to son.

Yes, indeed we seem to do that / I can happily say, however, that within the past year I have laid my burden to rest / I shall live out what remains for the rest of my life guilt-free / It has been a long time in coming, but it is here and I think I should be congratulated / Free! Great Gawd Almighty! I'm free at last!
