When Things Go Sour


When things go sour

The result is pain

The other result is wondering how you got there

And who was right and who was wrong

And how did it get that sour that quickly

The answer is elusive, mysterious

Buried in the tangle of missed points

Buried in fears, defensiveness

Pride

Then we are crouched on all fours

Washed up on the beach

Barely breathing

Heart pounding

Face flushed with  regret

Wandering amidst the seaweed and the wreckage

Clinging to the hope that despite the momentary hurt

The work will be done

Responsibility taken where necessary

Apologies given

To them

And to

Yourself

Life goes on

And the multiverse does not really care

As we all drive down the road to a special place in the sun.
