ADMISSIONS AND EXIT INTERVIEWS

This may very well be the worst thing
I have ever done
but
is it what I’ve done today
or the lie that I’ve lived too long,
now exposed?
May others judge me
I just need to get free.

I don’t love you anymore;
I may never have.
I am divorced from your attentions
and have been
for too long.
I’m moving out
and I’ve moved on.

The things I need to say
are not the things you’ve needed to hear
but that makes them no less true.
It’s time for goodbyes.
It’s been time
for eternities
and
if you don’t see the truth in it today
it should all become frighteningly clear
when you hear the rest.
