How can i explain to you that i am
merely mortal.
flesh.
blood.
bone.
I make mistakes,
I am fallible.

Seeing that we were drifting a part,
and stagnant simultaneously-
I felt a stab,
dull
like a dirty
prison shank.

Thus in fear, i peered over my shoulder,
into the past and my ex-lovers arms.
and i swam in familiar
flesh.
sweat.
tears.
I make mistakes.
I am fallible.

It was tonight staring back
at my reflection in your
salty ocean face,
that i really
knew
felt
your love.

of course, it was
too little
too late.
