forgiveness (Free verse) by elizabethann
We cried together
Our tears became one when we sat
on that cold linoleum floor.
The pink tiles stayed in my mind.
Mildew from over the years
had grown and attacked.
No words were spoken
but we relived all our mistakes.
When I blew you off
and you spread the rumors.
We forgave each other
Without an apology.
Spiderwebs filled the corners
dead bugs had met their doom.
I reached for your hand and
you didn't pull away.
It was more than enough.
Everytime I walk in there
I smell your perfume
I see your glistening green eyes
I hear our sobs in sync.
I remember the day you died.
