I woke and walked to the next room
My eyes could not comprehend what I saw
It was clear my presence was not welcomed
Calmly the command for me to leave was given
I inquired about the events before me
My question ignored
What was taking place was not for me to see
More sternly the command was repeated
Confused by her lack of shame
I eventually retreated
Sometimes I wonder if she felt rotten
Almost forty trips around the sun
Never a day goes by without at least a flash
She assumed I had forgotten.
