When You Know You'Re What's Wrong
Replay the conversation...take a walk
and keep walking,
Down the street, past the silence signs,
Up a couple of mountains, farther away until there are no more rivers to be shed.
Into a valley where the sunrise sheds light on understanding and compromise, to a place where light Emanates from the words, "I'm sorry..." and "I didn't mean it..."
To a place of shared excitement, to a place where the hike you accomplished is enough.
Just keep walking until you find a trail that leads to what you meant to say,
Not what was said.
Maybe one day... the walk won't have to be so long.
