Irresponsible

by Yolanda Shabazz

I cringe to think
You could walk away
Only briefly looking over your shoulder.

You could look into an innocent face
Detached
Never seeing a continuity of life, of you.

If walking away has been an easy decision
I can be glad for the distance you’ve created 
By moving on!
