Your fault

 "This is all your fault!"

You yelled at me as he drove away
Swerving and unsteady he left
Drunk in a cloud of dust
That moment has crystallized
The veneer cracked
And the truth so carefully disguised
Spilled out

You wanted him to stay
And me to leave
The fragile reconciliation
We had come to
The remorse and apologies
All shattered In an instant

That was the moment
My trust broke
My faith was lost
I couldn't understand it then
But now it seems clear
Every "you're unavailable, but I'll wait"
Was a projection
But also a request
For my patience and tolerance
For me to wait for you
until you moved on from him

You exclaimed
"I don't want to sleep with him"
But you did
"I don't want to be with him"
But you were

It's clear now
What your priorities were
