This was a bad idea.
Let me take that back.
This was THE bad idea.
I thought we knew enough
to not make those same mistakes again
but we’re just so good at them
you know?
We make those mistakes
so very naturally.

I should have known how familiar
our rhythms would become
and though it’s good to see you
to experience you again
after this time
really
there’s a reason that we had that time.
We don’t get along.

I should have left the key.
You should have changed that stupid lock.
We should be apart and I should never
have begged you
to return to what was so wrong.
This was a mistake.
This was my mistake.
I should have known better.
I’m sorry.
