Forgiveness

Forgiveness

She walked outside
the doors
leaving him behind
on bed, in lethargy.
They were fighting
a random fight
that every couple fight-
Who will take the dog on a walk?
It was his hour in night
and he argued
as it was still
past six.
She was filled with rage
as if she wanted to
tear his hair
and make him pay
for the insipidity.
But then, she looked at dog
and its longing eyes
met hers.
She felt it,
and immediately leaping up
to feet, walked outside
the doors
forgiving him behind,
empty with
his thoughts.
