Mea Culpa


Here. Speechless.
Witness to rebuilding.
Guilt well-deserved.
Remorse.
Inadequate.
Grateful for understanding.
Trust betrayed.
Trust born of innocence.
Courage preserving innocence.
Promises unfulfilled.
Past moments of sweetness.
Memories now called into question.
A question of self.
Uncertainty visible.
A question of deception.
No answer enough.
Helpless.
Unable to understand.
Pain unintended.
This is me.
I ask forgiveness. 
Not for the last time.
