The Empty Plate
You paid my mortgage.
You paid my electric bills.
When I was sick in the hospital, you covered the deductible out of your own pocket.
And I cast you aside for a woman who just told me what I wanted to hear.
I’m not here to beg you to take Daniel back.
And I’m not asking you for a check.” She swallowed hard.
“I came to ask for your forgiveness.”
