The mistake

Charles Michael Craven

I say sorry,
she nods her head
and I know I’ve lost her.

she found me in bed with my ex girlfriend.

the empty eyes,
the forced up and down movement of the head,
the shallow breath at the touch of our lips.

she has more self esteem
or stubbornness
than the others.

it only took once this time.

I don’t blame her.
I blame me.

the anger,
the deadness,
the constant peaks and valleys.

one day I’ll fix it
or
one day she’ll fix me.
