December 12th

I made time for 'us'.

Only to hear you talk about her,

To watch you watch her.


How you loved her so much,

I was to be known.


On the back bench,

You sat with me,

Told me something I shouldn't have known.


But I tried to understand.

I knew you loved her,

You loved her all along.

But hearing it from you,

Felt a lot more wrong.


You didn't just break me,

You broke 'us.'

That's when I accepted it,

'Us' was a lie all along.
