Every Word

We used to be happy

Now we’re are no longer an “us”

“I’m sorry” doesn’t cover it

But I won’t make a fuss


You sat and confessed

While love and hate blurred

You thought I didn’t hear you

But I heard every word


Waves crash and retreat

Sand forgives and forgets

And it happens once more

Still you have no regret


You apologized again

That last brain cell stirred

I knew you didn’t mean it

But I heard every word


I used to know you

Then you looked me in the eyes

I didn’t know who I saw

Now I see it shouldn’t be a surprise


I asked you to go

You told me I’m being absurd

I apologized

And I know you heard every word
