Poem: You Did Not Seem Supportive

You Did Not Seem Supportive

when it was possible,

seemed disinterested

or skeptical, never expressed

any interest or enthusiasm,

not at all, but it cannot be, now,

the chance went away,

choices were made

that went in other ways,

so now, you will say,

when I express my hurt

that it cannot be,

that what will be instead

will not ever seem right,

now, you will tut, say it is unfortunate,

will speak as one who is disheartened,

as though you do not know

the part you played

in making it so it never happened.
