We’re Not In This Together
Struggling to remember how
I felt at the time.
An evolution of understanding that hasn’t progressed very far.
Sickening feeling that
I should have seen it coming.
That
I did, but didn’t want to see it coming.
Does that mean
I could have done more?
I think your mind was made up.
Another bystander.
The movie you were playing, the songs in your head.
This was no reunion.
No stars were aligned that day.
In a dream
I saw you.
You said you were all alone.
Sharp these words; they stayed with me.
In the end,
I know they’re true.
