THE OTHER SAW IT BARE
“I’m repulsed by you,”
I say.
Maybe that will make me feel better.
Frozen, trying to remember memories
because you made me hate them.
Two sinners bonded,
creating a friendship
against everything in the commandment.
Oh, look what we became
One sinner gave it all.
The other… saw it bare.
The sinners?
Both right.
No wrong.
The sinners are separated.
One saw it as a joke.
One swore it all.
One never forgave.
Both fell.
The Devil laughed.
I saw.
