Uncovered

I found your phone yesterday and read your WhatsApp messages. You’d hidden it but I found it anyway. It always hurts to read the untruths, the things you keep from me. We fought and you locked the bedroom door. "Please be kind and let me in" I begged. Talk to me. See me. Feel my pain. But your heart stayed closed all night. Today I can’t stop thinking about where and who I would be if you had never come back into my life. Needing help, saying you had changed. As we come out of Lockdown will I have the courage to end it and rebuild my life again?
