Wake Up!

was it right for her to always be 
regardless, 
of anything and everything
thrown against my face

why the endless excuses
around not wanting to see
the obvious,
ugly reality

steeped in disregard
sown in anger,
carefully crafted around snide remarks
when my only motivation was care 

looking back at myself
I saw the years pass by
one by one, 
until there were no more years
to give,
no more tears to cry
no more excuses

attempting some pathetic explanation
of the blatantly obvious, 
enough...
