Truth

Knowing the truth now

Even if it is 38 years late

Still brings a certain kind of happiness.

It is not regret

of the what-might-have-beens.

But more a confirmation

and validation that it did happen.

Can I just grieve then?

Take some moment to absorb?

How does one grieve

for truth finally revealed?

Explanations that were

desperately sought

several years ago.

Only revealed today.
