i'll have to accept
myself and my previous
actions
for what i did
is so expensive
how could you
not feel
even a smudge of guilt?
you gave me you
i gave you me
for the first time
i gasped
and for the first time
i stayed with you
for more than a night
i asked
do you love me
your reply was what i expected
a yes
but it was so dark
i couldn't see
your true response.
