The apology
Was quite easy
I poured my heart out
Checked and realized my flaws
My thoughts were only of myself
But the wait
For your sweet forgiveness
It is sheer agony
A frail soul as I
Can bear the guilt no longer

When I was afraid
I spoke out to you
Then why do you abandon me so?
In a dark whirlwind of despair
Terror
Confusion
Such pain of the unknown
Just say it already!
Lift me out of the frying pan
And toss me to the raging flames
So after my flesh has melted away
I will receive my rest

The sky is dark and full of stars
The same stars you love
The same stars we loved

But soon the sun will rise
And darkness will die
And there you will be
Right in front of me
I'm not ready for morning to come. Time to face the facts though.

Your heavy, hot air scorches my face
Bumpy, twisting roads lined with leaves of fall
Condensation on the windows
Keep going is the mantra playing in my head
You are fidgeting,
     you're nervous, but what for?
This moment we share is going well
You look swell, you always do

I tap my nails
Nervously
Remembering what you said

I'm banking on Love
Hope I haven't over-drafted
David Hutton Dec 2018
The house I live in serves no purpose.
Dry, cracked and irritated surface.
Scratching and itching.
A liberating mission
to unpave the layers of burden.

It's a fist clenched around my heart
Waiting for the doctor to show
Alone in the gray monotonous room
Sitting here til they tell me it's closed
Home is welcome but empty
And I'm back the very next day
Passing the time and hoping maybe
Tomorrow I can be on my way
