Delving Deeper
The comment hurt and I withdrew My response was brief as I promptly ended our conversation Thoughts flooded through my mind "He doesn't need me" "He has her now" A truth that I sometimes still find difficult to accept We shared a special, one-of-a-kind connection A mutual, multi-level intimacy that we both cherished and carefully tended A bond that neither of us...

Slighted Apology
My words to you are formulated slowly, excruciatingly, drawn out. I do not know how to make you understand and so It all ends up in a jumble Each word rushing over the next in their haste to escape my clumsy tongue.
