Did I love?
Did birds
ever soft
ever gentle
ever true
ever speak to me the way
you claimed they spoke to you?
Did the woods I know and love
one day become your home too?
contrite and resigned-
I’ll bury our hatchet
the one you tossed over your shoulder
without waiting to see it hit its mark
I’ll bury it in my heart.
