I saw an old friend
at a wedding
she just had her second kid
and I'm engaged
we caught up
reminisced a bit
and it was good.
It made me think
how strange
time can be
and that saying
"time heals all wounds"
may not be true
but there's truth in it.
Eight years ago
this friend
hosted my intervention
at her apartment
and only now
do I realize
I never considered the effect on her.
There must
have been a cost
in time and stress and energy
weathered patience
and tested credulity
perhaps there remains a debt
for what was taken but never fully given back.
