TO YOU (PLURAL)

TO YOU (PLURAL)

A Poem by Glen Fitch

  


    For all the times
        I made you ill at ease,
    for all the times
        I showed up unannounced,
    for all the foolish things
        I did to please you,
    all those times
        you felt your boundaries trounced,
    I want to thank you all.
        You were so kind.
        You tried to firmly stop me
            at the start.
        You showed how much you cared
            as you declined to match my efforts,
                take my willing heart.
    You would not
        let me cheat myself,
        divert you efforts
            that I sought to misconstrue.
        So easily you could have
            used or hurt me.
        You know I'd have let you do it too.
            For stares,
            unwanted words,
            my many tries at closeness,
                I hereby apologize.
