My memory is cruel
I'm queen of attention to details,
Defending intentions if he fails.
Until now: he told me her name.
It sounded familiar in a way,
That I could have sworn I'd heard him say it
Ten thousand times,
Oh, if only I had been listening.
Leave unsaid unspoken.
Too late, two choices: to stay or to leave;
Mine was so easy to uncover
(He'd already left with the other)
So I learned to listen through silence.
