where do we go from here?

we are not speaking

because I spoke up

my words did not land as intended

disturbing the tender ground between us

stirring waves higher than expected

threatening to erode what we created

not feeling seen – hurts

not being heard – stings

not being understood – burns

you did not need to hear

what I shared

I made that mistake

and I can’t unsay

what has left my mouth

is silence threatening to wash away what we had, 

or might we reclaim what now seems lost?
