You Wanted Me to Go | G. S. Katz

I can forgive
I can’t forget
Those words cut me
With time I looked back
Thinking not of me
Thinking of you
The deep anguish
The fire in your throat
The venom you screamed in words
The passion of frustration
I left
I won’t return
At first I wanted an apology
Now I want nothing
It wasn’t that hard to leave
It almost made me smile
