Things don’t happen all at once
You don’t grow old all at once
It happens slowly
And then it just is
And that’s what hurts
It was every day
All the days
You put that thing off
Until
Here you are
Looking at yourself in the mirror
Kingdoms don’t fall in a day
love doesn’t die in a day
“I want a divorce.”
I said it first
We both had been thinking it
I think she was angry
Because I said it out loud before she could
But there it was
The all at once
