I do not need your condolences.
My heart is too full, full of questions.
I do not blame.
I only ask.
I thought I understood.
Smug in my misconception.
I thought I knew.
I do not want your hugs.
I am crowded enough.
My arms are holding the promises.
Promises I misinterpreted.
So, you see.
I do not blame.
Only ask,
Ask for understanding.
