You said that you were
Sorry
For hurting me

You watched the silver tears
Roll down my cheeks
And you apologized
But did not wipe them away

Your sorry eyes pleaded
Silently
And you stood awkwardly
Four feet away from me
Which was too close
For comfort

I should have turned
And walked away
Rudely
But you held my gaze
Which was enough
To keep me standing there
Facing you

You asked for me
To forgive you
As you watched my tender heart
Thump
Thump
Thump

I remembered my Seventeen Magazine
And how it said
That you're in love
As my heart continued to beat
Painfully caught
Between the memories
And the way you looked in the dark
At that moment
With your hair a tangled mess
And wet eyes

And I looked at you wildly
And said
Yes
