Missing What was Never There by Maezali Barnett

A simple task. A simple ask. An expectation most would have, yet you lack.

The path you had laid buried under years of neglect and remorse. Will the leaves be cleared from the stones? Will I once more seek the attention from a man who has never sought my own?

Forgiveness is not forget. An invitation indicates a reminder of whats been done. Change WILL follow re-embracement. No longer I’ll spend cowering from unknown emotions.

All that to say, I do pray, that someday you’ll be in my life again.

Maybe, this time, with the unprecedented expectation of communication.
