Unforgiveness

The Impossible and Possible

By Sky LuePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Bad timing

It’s bad timing roles out of my lips and I can see the frustration on yours

Its dignified, your anger and hurtful words hold justification

Like a perfect storm that I have single handedly created, conducted and dropped in your lap

Call it what you may, guilt, lying, cheating

You deserved the raw truth, as imperfect as it exists

You deserve unbroken porcelain, pure and true

I am past broken

Unidentifiable

Baggy eyes

Unheard cries

Love is patient

Love is kind

Love will eat you alive

Pick up pieces

Or sweep them into the dark corner of your mind

A debt, un-repayable

Interest eats layers of who I am

Piece by piece

I now understand the cost of transparency

Slowly, indefinitely the seed begins to root deep in my abdomen

The leaves licking my ribs

The blossoms whispering

The lies I once knew that are now truth

Undeserving of love

Unqualified human

Unworthy of space

A pivotal point

A decision to make

How long before I completely break?
