i stare at myself.
the cold reflection in the mirror,
as i think about what you said,
the issue becoming clearer.

when i spoke those feeble words,
i did not understand,
the consequence that lay ahead.

i wanted comfort,
for which i did not receive.
instead a honest reply,
soaked with truth and vague appeal.

i am stubborn,
set into my narrow mind.
if you knew how much ive changed,
you wouldn't have uttered that bitter-sweet contemplation.
