Can You Tell?
Oh how I’ve messed up
The trouble
I
have
caused
The hurt
I
have
caused
Never have I been in this position
So unaware
So unsure
Yet simultaneously and utterly aware
Of the pain
I
have
caused
I know not what
to say
Except to hope, be quiet,
and to pray
God!
do I pray
For the resolution and clarity
Of these days
Will there come a day
When my thoughts will not be consumed
By worry
fear
guilt
doubt
In that second
You
were
gone
Were we gone?
You slipped
I wished to take it back
Oh, what have I done --
Oh, why do I fail?
