Soon EnoughA Poem by MariahSoon enough, He’ll call me when it is most convenient for him He’ll explain that the gratification of his ‘sorry’ could only accurately be portrayed by the grace of his lips on mine That feeling the curvature of my body is the only way he could forgive himself For the damage he has done. After all, even after all this heartache It is still he who suffered the most. He’ll touch me as if his pain could only be explained by his skin on mine As if forgiveness meant contact And contact meant wholeness. And when his fingers speak for him I hope i have the strength to tell him that my body is not my soul That the damage he caused cannot be undone by his lips That this time, his ‘apology’ is not enough. © 2014 MariahAuthor's Note
