I admit
I sat back {for once} denouncing another day
Occupied composing the profound things I would say
Whilst waiting patiently for emotion to go away
Once again uninvited & the cause of the delay
Truth is I’m tongue tied and speechless even silent
Suddenly aware of how words too can be violent
A casual comment the cause of this very coincident
Leaves me vulnerable honest exposed openly reticent
So simply look me in the eye – it’s all that this will take
if you own up and admit it – I will - it wasn’t all fake
we both can however agree – it was a momentous mistake
one that rules as reminder to remember not to remake..
