My Fault

You were far past angry tonight

     Disappointed

          Disillusioned

               Disenchanted

All I did was feed into that

     Confusing you

          Confounding you

               Cuckolding you

Behind scared bald face of concerns

Shame on me

     My vanity

          Stupid ego

               Selfish pride

You turned, as expected, to ask

     No support

          No reason

               No answer

A face slap from my day gone wrong

     Reaction

          Inaction

               Infraction

Cracking mortar carefully placed

Shame on me

     Mea culpa

          Mea culpa

               Mea maxima culpa.
