HIATUS
David says
We should have some time
Apart
He needs to work on forgiving me
But right now
He’s busy
Forgiving Michael.
You need to forgive me too, he says
For what? I almost say
But my throat burns
Tied in a knot with the anger
I still hold for him
The night in jail
The lawyer and
Panic, how I
Drowned in
Panic
That pours out of me
As tears.
See? I knew it, he says
You wouldn’t behave like that
Without a reason.
We hold each other
The words
I’m so sorry
Orbiting us and then
We give each other space
And time
Which after all
Are both
Infinite.
