shrink

shrink
into a heard
shrink
into words
shrink
until i see a blob
shrink
until i can not sob
shrink
farther into my heart
shrink
deeper into the dark.
shrink
shrink
smaller
tinier
until your puny self
rests in my palm
so i can look at you straight on and say:
i'm sorry.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

its harder to say something you mean, when you stuck looking up dreadfully.
