That was just to say

               What hurt most? This is just to say I think


         you wouldn’t wake me I have eaten from my dream
    when we could have shared the plums together could have talked
    and wrestled the thoughts that were in between us
              and put them in the icebox to chill

  or that ‘just’ that stunned and which so casually
                   insinuated you were probably cruel
               you know I was saving nothing

                       waiting for breakfast for break-up

              or maybe the lie Forgive me no real apology
      smearing me with malice they were delicious your adjectives
           forgiveness though so sweet is a dish

              best served late and so cold and so so cold
