I sat and waited for you to reply, Finding myself once again in deny that you could ever break my heart, that you could smile as I fell apart. Now I’m wondering about the reimbursement part. Have you found it in your bankrupt heart to offer a lost soul some compensation? If not to me, then to the goddess of love who helped yoke us into a you and me though we knew it was not meant to be, but chose to follow our self-hewn lusty boulder-strewn path anyway? I know it wasn’t your fault. You made it perfectly clear nothing ever was. We should have kept our distance and not banked on a future together. I was making regular deposits. You began withdrawing immediately. Somewhere in your travels, from there to here and back again, have you thought about the yield? How to offer the ultimate compensation? It’s really not expensive, even you can afford it. Just three words will do. Just say it. 'I am sorry'... so my emotional banks can return to zero, and I can begin moving towards fulfillment. |

I don't think we like this person. A good strong poem; I hope you can let the feelings go. Thank you for sharing it. |
