Today,
However,
I feel I let you down.
I imagined tears rolling down your cheeks
Shock and anguish gripping you
At the choices I’ve made
The decisions I’ve enacted
That have hurt you
Broken you, even.
Can we talk?
Could we have some time to listen to each other’s view?
I call and text
But you don’t respond.
I’m giving you the time I feel you need,
And yet,
I’d really love to hold you close.
I don’t know when this will reach you
Or if you’ll hear it.
But, call me,
I’d love to talk.
Bye, I love you.
