You Missed Your Cue
"I'm sorry for each flinch
of the welcome wagon.
Truly, honey.
I paraded excuse
after excuse in Rio grandness,
but you missed your cue
to pay homage.
I'm sorry I took every real moment
and stretched it to fit my dressing table,
because if I don't look fabulous
this will get ugly.
I changed my mind,
she is wonderful,
but I can't stand him.
It really is just
about how you
fucked up, sweetie."
Well, I apologise to me
for blindly following
and for giving it all away.
I confused loyalty
with something less.
I persevered for the right reasons
but the wrong pulse.
I forgive myself
because
I can.
