Elucidating Questions

Sometimes the worst part of karaoke is

The moment when your partner

Oh how I took advantage of you

Doesn’t call back

In the silence of the answer

The filled in voices show nothing expected but the truth

That every second that goes by

Is not answered

The battle on stage

Did it not sound like they were fighting?

Every silence filled with the sound of his absence.

Every moment he would have

Gone

Were they friends?

The answer is hard to reach

One says yes.

Stay.

I say stay.

Don’t give in.

Because even if the finger can be pointed

Yes

I fucking said

Someone took my hope. My compassion.

But he says it was himself.

And there’s too much to be put on a heart in the event of a loss with blame

It’s all them.

Every song.

My Link in the park.

I want to find you again.

Wait for me there.

You always shine so bright.

We were lucky to have you.

I love you.
