Years of strife…
Separation… from me...from them.
Purposefully orchestrated by you...over a willful lie
Time seems shorter now…time is shorter now
You should be ashamed for your actions...more-so ashamed of your lack of action…
(yes I know that “should “ statements are dangerous)
I don’t expect you to understand that ..nor do I expect you to try to understand it...nor do I expect you to even want to understand it)
you’ll proclaim some misguided duty or honor..
trust me it only exists in your world…
here, it’s just sad…you injure those around you with your prideful acts
years have passed since…likely more than either of us has remaining…
how much longer will you continue?
can you not hear the alarm sounding? It continues to ring…
subtly louder and louder as time passes…there is no snooze button…
you simply ignore it…indignantly…
what will you hear when it goes silent?
I wonder if they…if I – aren’t in some way shielded, protected…from further dolor in this separation… perhaps.
they can’t miss what they haven’t had…what they haven’t had the opportunity to experience.
find that in your elegant self-assigned code of honor.
Unfortunate.
