an old man
with eyes
the colour of silver
told the boy
with lies
lacing his tongue
that it was
more difficult to apologize
when it was meant
than when it wan't
and that it was easier
to forgive
someone you cared little for
than someone
you loved

i keep looking for answers
when i should be
looking
for questions
instead

I haven't been alive
For 29 years
But I have still dreamed about you
For that long
