I forgot how to breathe so I dreamed instead (an apology)

She said she would be there for you. You believed her but never acted on it, so you stayed away till today when you finally decided to come ...

To My Nature: My Neighborhood

Tell me how can I hate you,

when you are literally all

I know; when you have done

nothing than be there for me. 

Completely unchanging

for as many years as I

am old & as many years 

as you were when the

changes started happening

to you, you've still stayed

the same. And tell me how

can I hate you when you

are not to blame for what

people have done to you

this rancid smoke that

constantly pollutes you &

keeps me at bay from

you, I cannot blame

you for being littered

more than the bottom

of the sea. Now how

can I hate you when

I can't say you hate me?
