Belated Apology

I was eating lunch today
and I heard your song


The one that you said

you wished somebody shared with you
as your special song

I know you think I abandoned you
but I had to reject the illusion
that had formed between us


Not because you lied to me

but because you were lying to yourself

I just waved my hand
and dispelled the dream

Our dream

And even though I did the right thing
it still hurts

And I’m sorry

  2. Hurtful, indeed. But having to apologize for doing the right thing is also hurtful, I think.

  3. oh....captivating! to be on the other side of illusion, to make the choice affecting two, standing by that choice and validating it....mmmmmm, lovely write.

  4. Yup, been there before. Not pleasant but necessary.

    Thanks for your awesome comment on "Epi-Epi" (My own short-hand) - I just posted an audio version of it too that I think an aspiring musician like yourself may appreciate.

    Cheers!
