We throw words in anger and wound each other's fragile heart. My frustration has boiled over and your impatience has gotten the better of you. I lashed out without thinking and scarred you. You retaliated and sliced a piece of my heart. Not to be outdone I threw your imperfections in your face. Your hot temper quickly tosses back a cutting reply. This goes on as tempers boil and tears fall. In a moment of total disgust you walk out the door. The door slams behind you and I stare at it amazed.
I slowly feel my world crumble. I fall to my knees as hope, joy, and comfort mock me from the memories that we have made together. My anger melts and desperation sets in. Worry soon shadows desperation. Are you coming back to me? I pick myself up off the floor and wrap a blanket around myself. Your presence was my sunshine and now it is bitter cold. Hours go by and slowly my emotionally drained body succumbs to the sleep that is beckoning me.
You timidly knock on the door. I allow you in and wait. Nervousness has frozen my body. Simultaneously we whisper "I'm sorry".
My darling you were forgiven before the fight began.
