i came across a case like historians
who failed to decipher scripts of old age
i failed to read his mind
who through his actions had put it on display
i failed to read his actions
kept his life locked behind the doors
never letting me in
and knowing
what he was going through
i foolishly
tagged him
blamed him
“for ruining our friendship”
the mizpah, the bond that kept us close
broke in an instant
bringing my world to an
“blackout”
my nights turned haunted again
the savior absquatulated me again
my ghosts began to rule over me again
leaving me in a state of despair
