Since An Epiphany Has Arrived

The living of life,
Can reveal bewildering moments.
Some are not as stunning as others.
But needless to say,
One that is stunned by an event...
Remembers it never to forget.

Like being picked to have a misdeed done.
One that is intentional,
By someone feeling vindictive.
To have that 'someone' eventually feeling guilty...
Then to ask the victim to forgive and forget.
Since an epiphany has arrived.

'Sure,
I'll remove the knife from my back.
And while I do that,
Why don't you make reservations for us.
We will have dinner then maybe catch a movie afterwards.
Don't worry abour the blood.
I will pretend it's not there.'
