I Think I Get It Now
At the sudden realization of
my error,
my heart sinks,
my face burns hot and red.
I can barely bear the memory.
If I stay very still
or just keep moving,
maybe it will pass.
I don’t want anyone to know.
I want to tell everyone,
to laugh until our sides hurt.
Can I start again?
Am I too late?
I think I get it now.
